I have an EP3 with 85,000 miles.
When the car is started first thing in the morning I can hear what sounds like big end bearings rumbling. It goes off after 3 seconds when the oil pressure comes up. If the car is restarted during the day it's not there, only after the oil has drained down overnight.
Something in the back of my mind says this is normal with this engine.
Can anyone confirm or should I replace the bearing shells.
Thanks.
