I listen to a clicking noise coming from my high engine
If you listen to an engine noise on Fiat Stilo, and this noise is based at the top of the engine, it means that it is based at your cylinder head and accompanying elements. Two elements can be the causes of these engine noises on Fiat Stilo. Either the hydraulic pushers, generally it is because of their faulty “hydraulic catch-up” system that we will listen to these clicking noises, often when cold and goes away when hot. Otherwise, it is your the play of your rocker arms or their state of wear that is the issue. In this case, consider changing them.
I listen to a noise coming from the bottom engine of my Fiat Stilo
If you have identified the area of source of engine noise on Fiat Stilo that comes from your low engine, it may be that your rods or piston shafts are the causes. In both scenarios, the long-term risk is engine failure. These two fixes are very difficult and most technicians will advise you to replace the motor of your Fiat Stilo.
I listen to an engine clicking noise on Fiat Stilo coming from combustion
Finally, if you have the feeling that this clicking noise is related to the combustion of your engine, there are three possible causes of it. Verify the state of your glow plugs which if worn can hinder the proper combustion of the fuel mixture. Then, your timing belt may be shifted and may poorly control the timing of the various engine components to induce good combustion. And finally, the most classic cause, comes from your injection, which is either clogged or one or more injectors is injured.

Hissing noise / engine friction Fiat Stilo
Engine noise Fiat Stilo close to a bearing
If it is close to a squeaking noise you may have one of the bearings of your engine accessory parts that are reached. So examine the state and try to locate the exact origins of this noise by positioning someone at the engine at idle, and if this noise is more likely to occur in high rpm, accelerate and position someone at the engine block to distinguish the area of origin of the noise. The three elements whose bearings are often at the origin of these noises are the water pump, the injection pump and the oil pump.
Engine noise Fiat Stilo when releasing or depressing the clutch

Engine noise Fiat Stilo close to a friction
In case that you listen to a motor noise on your Fiat Stilo, and, that this noise is close to a friction, it is likely that one of your belts or one of the components that causes it is the source of your concerns.Often, we will start to listen to a motor noise on Fiat Stilo, close to a friction when one of the belts is worn out or when one of the related parts like your alternator, or your tensioner roller is the problem. So remember to examine their state and go to your technician to change the elements in question. If you have been able to target the noise as coming from the belts and you want more information about it, take a look at this content page on belt noise on Fiat Stilo for a complete guide.
Metal motor noise Fiat Stilo
In case that you listen to an engine noise on Fiat Stilo and this noise is close to metal noise, it is possible that this noise comes from your gearbox or clutch. Indeed, a metallic noise in the engine block is often associated with damaged sprockets. Try to examine that this noise comes from the transmission, if this is the case, quickly go to your technician or you would get a break down. Finally, the second possibility is that your silent engine blocks or rubber mounts may be dead. This causes a metallic noise each time your engine moves, either because of a change of pace (acceleration or braking) or, when you pass on roads in poor state. Verify the state of your silentblocks and change them if needed.
