Does your car engine make a rattling, knocking, or metallic sound while driving or idling? These noises often indicate a deeper issue within your engine that needs immediate attention. Ignoring them could lead to serious engine damage or costly repairs.
At Meta Mechanics Abu Dhabi, we specialize in car engine rattling repair and diagnostics for all vehicle makes and models. Our certified mechanics use state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to pinpoint the exact cause of the noise — whether it’s a loose component, worn bearing, or timing issue — and fix it efficiently.
With a focus on precision, quality, and performance, Meta Mechanics ensures your engine runs as smoothly and quietly as it should.
Common Causes of Engine Rattling Sounds
Rattling noises can stem from various engine components. Our experienced technicians at Meta Mechanics Abu Dhabi frequently diagnose and repair issues such as:
- Loose Timing Chain or Belt – A worn or stretched timing chain can cause rattling noises, especially during startup.
- Low Engine Oil or Oil Pressure – Insufficient lubrication leads to metal friction, creating knocking or rattling sounds.
- Worn Piston Rings or Bearings – Internal wear in engine components can cause metallic rattles under load.
- Faulty or Loose Heat Shields – These can vibrate against the exhaust or engine block, mimicking engine noise.
- Damaged Valvetrain Components – Worn lifters, valves, or camshafts often produce consistent ticking or rattling sounds.
- Loose Exhaust or Mounting Bolts – Simple mechanical looseness near the engine can create vibration noises.
- Detonation or Engine Knock – Irregular combustion caused by poor fuel or timing can sound like a metallic ping.
Each noise tells a story — and our experts know how to read it accurately.
