master garion 1 Report post Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) Does someone know what this ticking noise is? I have the exact same noise in my car. Oil level's fine and the car's done 170k. The noise seems to be coming from driver's side of the engine. Edited October 9, 2011 by master garion Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
