hey there, was out in my 1.4 8v sri last night, and hit a few to many revs in a low gear. now wen the engine ticks over theres a knockin noise, the dad thinks its the fuel injectors and others think its the cam belt or even the cam, has anyone else had this problem?

engines dont like hitting the rev limiter simple as. im just used to mine tapping a bit loud when it gets ragged normally goes away after sticking a bit of oil in
