    There's only one way to get rid of that issue....

    Tearing down the engine and replace what ever is causing the diesel sound.

    Now is time to shop around for find the best deal.
    Dakar was just the begining.

    Did anyone mention that it might be the timing belt tensioner yet? I haven't had this issue, but there are a couple of threads around here, somewhere, describing a ticking sound that turned out to be just a bad timing belt tensioner. Only way to check that is to pull the timing belt covers off and check the tension, or lack thereof, of the belt.
