Diesel Engine Rattle

Dynamo7 · 2013-03-10 13:12:44

I have a new rattle in my Volvo V40 1.9 TDi engine. It's audible at idling but I'm pretty sure it's there all the time. I checked that its not the engine cover or anything obvious. It seems to be coming from the area of the alternator and auxilary drive belts. Any suggestions ??
