Ticking noise from Engine
Lately i've been hearing this ticking noise from my engine. It does it especially after I use vtech couple times. I've read lots of forum regarding the ticking noise. Some say its normal and some say something might wrong with the engine.
I've only had the car since December and I've only been hearing the ticking noise for the last two weeks :( . I took it to Brown's Honda of Arlington and they say nothing is wrong with it. Can I trust them :confused: ? I'd greatly appreciate any help. |
when was the last time you did an oil change?
|
I did an oil change about a week ago, after I first started hearing the ticking. Now its a little less but the sound comes back after I vtech.
|
did you do the factory 10w30 or something different? the only thing i can think of is a bent valve maybe.
|
I took it to the Honda dealership and they did the oil change. Although before the oil change it ticked a bit more. Now it only ticks after vtech.
|
I doubt it's that extreme, but you could possibly need a valve adjustment. Btw, what is "vtech?" A college? My S2000 has VTEC. :)
|
are you hearing this noise while you drive it or just when you lift the hood?
|
Oops sorry. My bad. Its been a long day at work. I meant VTEC.
|
I bet you u need your valve's adjusted...I had a similar sound at idle and it was louder durning vtec....What happens is the valve springs loosen creating valve chatter....Its an easy DIY pick up the tool from honda....
