Hiya just wondering as it seems you’ve got some good knowledge on the swift sport. Not sure which car i should buy the swift sport or the fiesta st ecoboost (the 138hp spec) any advice?

yes mate, up for holiday vids. Great update as been thinking about it.

Bad timing chain and tenchiner

As with another poster, I know I mentioned shimming the cam followers (mine's a low mileage 1.2, that sounds tappety on start up some days - not sure if they're hydraulic and so quieten after a few minutes of use, because mine seem to quieten, or if they're solid), however I didn't recall you'd done so many miles? Let's face it, although listed on the service schedule, the tappets aren't often shimmed by main dealers imho, they fudge the issue. As you've found, it may be worth changing the RC gasket periodically too, to stop the bolts seizing in place. But I digress, timing chain, guides and tensioners come into the picture too, with that sort of mileage mate. Not sure of service intervals though🤔 Oh and main dealer, last time, put in thinner oil (used on later Swifts) in mine, Comma et al, as does the manual, recommends thicker, higher viscosity oil. Main Dealers, only sell you what they've bought in bulk. I know that you change your own oil, so it's not a factor, but my comments may alert others. Regular engine flushes seem to help these days, they keep timing chains, followers and turbos in better condition for longer. Most main dealers don't do a EO flush though, surprise, surprise. One local garage swears by it with a timing chain car/engined, I'm inclined to agree too. Have you tried a long screwdriver, resting on your jaw against the cylinder head and/or timing chaim cover? Better still a stethoscope or higher tech version? Then you'd know where the sound is coming from. If you cant diagnose or decide? Id get the shims done (you and your dad could do the work, not sure if specialist tools are required), if that stops the noise? Job done. Id recommend engine flushes on a fairly regular basis for the sake of the timing chain etc.

To me it just sounds like a typical timing chain tick from any vehicle, as cant hear the best over camera anyways, they do unfortunately make noise and all swifts do, mine has 16000 miles on it and it ticks from cold and I've asked a mate who has a swift and his also does the same which has about 35000 miles on it , as long as its not rattling which would indicate a stretched chain or failed tensioner then i wouldn't worry also try 5w30 oil if you don't use that already , good video 👍👍

I have the same problem pissing me of trying to figure this shit out it’s only on 34 k too will keep a listen out seems like a lot of people have this problem

I haven't read all the previous comments (in previous videos) but my first thought (because I've been looking at service intervals recently) is timing chain, and you just said it in the video! 100k - 150k is when you should keep an eye on the noises from chain under normal conditions, but yours could have stretched.

Hi the link to ebay says page not available is there somewhere i can buy this bush thankyou.

Hi, did you disconnect the battery when doing this? What did you do with all the loose cables from the old unit that dont go anywhere on the new unit? Thanks

Whats the best way to ship parts to the US from UK?

Whats the best way to export to the US ?

I hope it happens, have no intention of replacing my current swift sport any time soon (in Australia) and will be perfectly happy to be patient and see what gets revealed over the next year or so. If it comes out around 2026 I'll likely be in the market for a new one by then so it'll be good timing!

Mine is a 2015, ive owned it for a year, its a little bit rough, because of the previous owners, but i love that little rocket

Just came across your page today. Awesome awesome content man. One question though, where did you get your taillights from?

I have the same problem a week ago Ticking Sound did you fix the problem. can you make another video about it that will be great

Looks really good mate! Is it Matt Black or Gloss Black?

Hopefully getting one this week, I need some advice please mate, looking to get a custom exhaust, potentially the Cobra one, I need to know if a random garage will install this? I need to know where you got that spoiler because I need that, and I love the look of the splitter, any advice where to get that from? Never really modded a car before but I know the swift sport is one where I want to make it look very nice, ideally like yours tbf!

it seems they are testing it in Japan it will be unveiled in September it will use an evolved k14d engine with 48v mild hybrid and 140-150hp mated to a 6mt or 6at gearbox (the same used in the zc33s)

Suzuki employee here, just wait until September and all will become clear 😏

Those black lines going down to the fog lights are like some girl with smudged makeup after a hard cry. Otherwise it's not bad.

Just another generoc blob. Like most cars these days. 🤮

Interesting video mate🤫💜✌️😊 I wont hold my breath though. The UK is under WEF/CCP control, we need to break from that, before common sense and success prevail. Also pricing - Im no expert on the economy in Japan - when Dacia are putting out very good VFM cars? Why has Suzuki started charging so much? Is it greed? Or "you'll own nothing and be happy?" They're outpricing their welcome, myopic IMHO, as they're missing their target market segments.

It's a nice thought but I'm not going to bother getting excited unless we see something more concrete than a single speculative article. Clickbait is a thing after all.

Great video dude, this has happened on my Suzy SX4 S Cross. Last weekend, can't even drive it to a garage, so now need to take it apart and see if its the same

Thanks sooo much! You just saved my day!! I almost broke my radio but lucky that I found your video!!! 🤩🤩😍😍😍😁❤️❤️

What fuel do you run it on mate

Hi what are these cars like as a dally Cheers

Nice little project, we will soon be custodians of the brand, if Suzuki GB maintain the current business strategy. Such a shame that those of us with 1.3 & 1.2 Swift's can get very few tune up parts. Another cracking video - good luck with recommissioning the car👍👍✌️✌️🤞🤞💜💜😊😊😊

How did you manage to adjust the valves? I live in England and I'm looking for someone who will do it well

Still looks good 👍

Used swift sport prices might rise now. I love mine

I think even if they didn't go EV/hybrid they would still have to make overcomplicated cars to pass emissions and it would still kill the Sports we love. Even the latest 33 hybrid isn't a pure hot/warm hatch in my eyes anymore, sorry to anyone who owns one, I'm not saying it's a bad car. By the way, have you seen the EURO NCAP crash test of the new Swift? Quite a disaster... This will not be a good advert for Suzuki.

Another one- off manufacturer gives - in to all this Bollox ,,,and thats what it is ,,,BOLLOX , I'm Surprised if I'm honest ... On the way to work I saw a number of different cars , all New Horrid EV's and Slippery Hatchbacks , reality was THEY ALL LOOKED THE FOOKIN SAME ... Thanks in part to you mate , I am Buying a 2015 Sport 3 door , Cooper S has to go , 😢 love it to bits , but what a shocking financial Disaster its been , no belts , no charger, should have got one in the first place , All the Best Mate , 200Kid

Here in Australasia, Suzuki will continue to offer the current gen swift sport until late 2025. After that it seems uncertain that we will see an updated model. Really sad times. They're such cracking little cars.

i’m 19, if i finance and insure a zc32s it’ll be £500 monthly including finance, insurance, petrol, etc. would you say it’s worth it.

will parts still be avaliable?

As an environmentalist for 30-40 years? Carbon Climate Change is an emperor's new clothes con. If anything it all makes me want to buy a classic V8 (that is, because it's still in existence and not been scrapped 20 times over and is thus MORE environmentally friendly than a dangerous, filthy, un- environmentally friendly, modern EV, that catches fire and puts children's lives at risk with their filthy supply chains etc.). The whole thing is as if the planet is being terraformed for an invasion, we are low on carbon and every mammal requires carbon and oxygen to live. The fact that any debate against the super elite and group think, is shut down or cancelled as conspiracy theory, lets me know, it's just that, we are being conned. "You'll own nothing and be happy" (WEF) is part of it too. Many car companies have now abandoned EVs and some countries are abandoning net zero too. Let's hope GB does the latter and Suzuki the former.

Loads of the other car company’s are going away from EVs. Hopefully Suzuki will u turn

Totally agree with you pal but lets face it their never gonna make a better swift sport than the MK2 can't wait till I get can one!

one thing you placed the cabin filter wrond the air flow goes down i did the same with my swift sport after a week i realized anbd fliped it

Poor suzi

These jobs creep up, but once done, you'll love the car all the more🙏🤞😊💜💜

It’s a shame you aren’t attending JDM Combe anymore but fair enough 😢 I think just a good detail would make you feel a lot better about the swift 🙌. I feel very much in the same boat with a third of the mileage though. The curbing on my wheels makes me cringe and my headlights need a bloody good buff. Hopefully see you at some events soon though 😊

Happy to see your next video. I'm crossing my fingers for your plans to come true and to bring shine for Suzy and make her even more beautiful! Wish you the best. It's relly nice that you take care so much of her.

Yeay im on here , great day this was

What i cant get my head around is that i have seen tonnes of people have the exact same issue (including myself currently) and NOBODY has found a definitive answer or solution to this issue. Ive checked the shims. They were fine. A bit too tight so i changed them but they were fine. I thought it may have been the cam chain tensioner. Was absolutely fine. Taken my A/C and alternator belts off. Fine again. If you manage to find the issue, i will buy you a beer. Honestly its the bane of my life currently. Good luck

Do you get the hardware with it?

It;s relly nice to see your new video. I'm the owner of suzuki swift sport also, it's a great car :) Wish you the best!

Fantastic, my parents live in scarboro

Yeay my 31s on here thank you
