Uploading a video of it might help us out, Don.

Some very good people here, quite a lot of experience with the D22 (not so much me, I'm more of a D40/Kyosho guy).

No FB here sorry. Haven't used it in ages.

If you don't have the "Upload Video" button at the bottom of your reply box, it'll be because you don't have a lot of posts yet, we can try discussing more about the issue for a bit?

For instance - does the tapping sound increase with engine speed or vehicle speed?

 

[Don]

So idle it sounds good n when you rev the Ute increase the revs it taps

Could be Injector hammer. I have the same model, and idle fine bit on tap noise at Idle and when cruising, put the foot down and it goes away, I think it is just the injectors. You can try putting through a purge/injector cleaner. My limited experience with diesels is that the noise is quite normal.

It isles and sound good when u apply the revs it has tap noise and considerable noticeable

Put a bottle of injector cleaner through first then move from there. Or Molly Diesel purge. Bit of a job to set up but works. I did mine when I first got it. and it quietened a lot of the noise down.
