That may well be it. Are you confident in checking the timing yourself.? If so, give that a look and if it did advance a tooth, replace the belt.

On friday mechanics will have a look. They will take rocker cover and check tappets and cambelt.
Does it harm to engine if i will drive it?

It may do, but any damage thats going to be done will be done at this stage. Limit the usage and keep an eye for anything suspect but tbh, if you have alternative transport, use that.

check the timing the engine braking may have made the cambelt jump a tooth

@thebusofwoe, any ideas?

Does sound like the cambelt has jumped a tooth to me, or been damaged. I wouldn't drive it Deniss..

Well regardless of what is said i would advise against driving it. It is possible to do more damage, BUT, this does depend on what damage has already been done

I mean, it is entirely up to you but over revving a motor past its limit by force is never going to go well. If you over revv a belt driven engine, it will either jump the cambelt or snap it. So what these guys are saying is just about spot on

My bet is its borked the auto tensioner and that's rattling around.

Here is why it jumped over.
Its one of bearings, but good thing ludes have plastic cover because belt would come of.
