200 series twin turbo

Peter, the noise you hear is 1 or more injectors. Checkout the landcruiser owners website for more info, Landcruiser owners website .

I would be very surprised if they had lifters as part of their design of valve train.
The fuel pump is a CRD pump and so quite different to old tech diesels. You don't normally hear a CRD pump.
As above, injector noise, yes.
All diesels are noisier when cold due to injection and combustion characteristics at that temperature.

Thanks for the help as I've just brought it and was worried about it but must be normal for them

The 200 has hydraulic valve lifters and do not require adjustment
If you have a rattle or tapping noise when cold and goes after 3-5 mins running then it could be a worn injector or several injectors out of range
It will need a cold start test by a main dealer or injector place to read the inj feedback numbers
Anything + or - 3.5 means injector worn beyond spec and needs replacement
How many kms on vehicle
If it is injector don't ignore as it can lead to major failure of piston

Does it do it on warm start as well? if not it maybe your oil thin enough and is not lubricating correctly on cold starts

Just a thought

Here you go all you need
