Is this ticking noise normal?
Is this ticking noise normal?
Please see this video. Didn't really notice till today and only because I had radio off when I Turned on car. But is this noise normal? Is there a ticking sounds here?
When I received my car a couple of months ago I noticed a similar sound too. However, I purchased it from an AM dealer that had done a thorough service and offered it with extended warranty. I've been driving it (hard) for very close to 1k miles and no issues or changes in the sound. I would like someone else who's experienced similar to jump on this and provide feedback.
Mine has very regular ticking like that, at least yours sounds regular, which is valve clearance, within spec, they tick a little. I drove another 2010 that had irregular clacking which I believe I understand means it needs an idler pulley, or something like that.
That's one I did not know about. A mechanic stethoscope would definitely pinpoint the source, but it doesn't sound any different that every V8V I've heard run [except the one that had random clacking]
