My trusty drill sounds rather strange when drilling - not on hammer.
It sounds like a rattling / clicking noise?
Any ideas? |

I have had this on a sds drill and it was not good news.
I don't suppose it is still under guarantee is it?
You might have to have a sneaky look inside and see what is wrong, if you are lucky you will be able to replace the damaged part.

I reckon you will find its the shaft bearing is either going or is on its way out, cheap to fix, mine cost about £5 from Miles tool and machinery and not very hard to do yourself as long as your confident with power tool repairs.

A colleague has bought the new Metabo SDS , its Rubbish, battery life is poo, and when its getting low it does not just slow down it stops dead . Vastly over priced for what it does in my oppinion. I am looking to buy the new 36V Li-ion one soon as mine has done me proud for about 8 years and now is looking a bit tired
