everything was running fine until the other day, the car started fine as usual and ran perfectly for about 30sec and then developed a very loud knocking noise (sounds like its coming from no 1 cylinder area). the car still drives as it should(done 127k) with no lack of power just the extra noise and a slight increase in smoke. i have been advised that it could be diesel knock but have no idea what i can do to cure this . what do i look for and is this a common problem on 406s? i am by far no petrol head or diesel head and would appreciate any suggestions to cyre the knockin
