Exclamation C320 nop nop nop noise I do not get assistance from Finland

Hello from Finland And I apologize for bad language. I have a problem which I do not get assistance from Finland. Studied car brand business performance poor. The car is a C320 V6 Auto (bensin) -01 year. Engine or gearbox is plop plop plop plop sound when the engine is warm and the gear connected to a D or R. Free set N does not produce sound. A cold engine produces no sound but the heat must be at least 40 degrees.

The sound comes from 5 seconds to delay when the gear is set to D or R, and the engine is warm. So when in gear consists of a burden on the sound will play. The water pump is a new micro V clamp is a new driver for a new roller, new crankshaft damper.

The sound is not sharp metallic sound, the sound is a soft plop plop plop a flat, or NOP NOP NOP, difficult to describe. Is it the fault on the engine or gearbox? None of the other symptoms do not exist, otherwise the car is perfect and will change gears correctly.


Can anybody help me, I am grateful

Question I tried second C320 and it was same voice

I tried second Automatick C320 (gasoline) and it was the same voice as my car. But this car plop plop / NOP NOP sound is much much more quiet voice. Does this sound "normal" for this car model?

What's that sound is, I think this sound is, for many automatick C320 model, but my car is the same voice is much more noisy? What does this sound comes from and why my car sound a lot stronger than the second which I have tried

Hello.

I speak on the phone and I tell specialist my problem...
Automatick transmission specialista say me on the phone that it is not gearbox, because it work very vell and that sound is not gearbox. i dont kow.

He get me one tip...timing chain tension tightener?

I dont know but the sound comes when the engine temperature is at least 30-40 degrees and the D or R gear with the brake in place. Now begins the steady tone for 5 seconds delay when connected to a gear (D or R) plop plop plop sound .... no metallic sound

When I move the selector to N position, the sound off.

Could this be a timing chain tension? Timing chain tensioner. Need to change the tensioner (tightener)? Or what

A complex matter. and I am talking alone

Feeling the engine without the belt. Without the belt Nop NOP / plop plop sound gear drops D / R setting about 40-50% of silence

What does that tell
