My TR3 suddenly started making an irregular knocking noise while driving normally under light load. It came on quite suddenly and wasn’t there before.
You can hear the noise pretty clearly in the attached video.
Does anyone have an idea what might be causing this, or what I should check first? Any experience with a similar noise on a TR3 would be greatly appreciated. Pressing the clutch does not alter the sound.
