Loud lifter tick?
I got a steth under the intake, and yep, I've got a loud tick the doesn't go away originating at the base of the head in the middle of the engine.
Started about a week ago, during my weekly warmup (car is not driven much). Started it again today and it was noticably louder, checked the oil - two quarts low, nothing showed on the dipstick. Now what? I put oil back in it, and the sound is not diminished. New engine? (please god no) Thanks, Patrick |
Ive heard that in general the tick is not harmful but just very annoying. Try run a lower weight synthetic oil or some MMO and see if it goes away.
