I have recently bought a 1 litre Toyota Aygo 2006 74000 miles on the clock, when I bought the car 2 months ago I noticed a ticking sound coming from the bonnet, when I mentioned this on the test drive the dealer replied that its normal on a 1 litre engine.
I have recently had 2 passengers who also noticed this sound, they both mentioned this sound was not right (they have both been in Aygos previously).
The ticking only happens upon accelerating,it does not happen upon startup or in neutral,the harder the accelerator pedal is pressed the faster/louder it clicks.
I have re-filled with the correct engine oil,with no affect.
I have checked the oil engine cap and there is a tiny white mark in the depth of the cap (but not on the rim)

It would be great if someone has ideas as to what is causing the noise?

Many thanks

Can you record the noise, upload it to a video hosting site, and then paste the link in here? Maybe listening to it can shed some light.

Sounds engine speed related. Can you duplicate the noise by revving the engine with the transmission in park? Has someone looked under the hood and listened to pinpoint where the noise is exactly coming from?

Yeah ive tried reving the engine while in neutral but i cant hear the ticking sound,so im struggling to pinpoint the location.
Its happening when the car is in motion in gear,originally i thought it was the pulley but it only happens when accelerating,the second i lift off it dissapears.

If you brake torque the engine, does the noise show up?

Brake torque the engine means you have the transmission in gear while your foot is on the brake pedal and your giving it gas.

Is there any way you could go back to the dealer and drive another vehicle that is the same as yours just to see if it makes the same noise?
