Clicking noise when i start my car up

[Team_swiff]

this has been going on for about 2 to 3 months now.. but everytime when i park my car for about 5 to 6 hours or in the morning my car after the first minute its being warm up it makes a clicking and a ticing noise and it sound strange. i own a 2006 evo and i havent done any mods beside down pipe and test pipe.. i was thinkin of taking it down to South Coast to check out the noise.. if i were to let you members hear it you would tell me to go get it check out. and even when im stop at a light the noise gets louder.. clicking an ticing.. do your evo sound like that? my car has 41000 miles on it. i already gave a 30k service to it but i still dont know whats wrong with it. please help me fix and resolve my baby.. Thanks. Jack

is normal if is not to loud that the hydraulic lifters make a clicking noise !

[pjb00stin]

mine is the same way.check your oil level too

[Team_swiff]

hmm it cant be the oil cause i just change it a Long Beach Mits about 2 months ago.. well when i do my 45k service ill just have them check it out thanks guys..

[pjb00stin]

yea,but sometimes dealerships will fill your motor with too much oil.warm your motor up and check the dipstick.the level should be in between the 2 lines.

anyone have an answer to this yet? It happening to me now. Especially loud when weather is cold or after rain. When I shut off the engine it goes click-click-click..click...click. Sounds like its coming from the cam gears and I feel a lot of vibration there when I put my hand on the cover. I have a cf hood and lots of moisture can get inside. Oil levels are good.

Lifters. Pull them out and clean them or replace them. It's a mitsu thing.

Could also be the cam positioning sensor... Any recent tunes?

Well... Since that's on the opposite side from the cam gears... That's less likely than the lifters.

[tanado]

I had it tuned was running fine. I ended up selling BOV got the stock 9. Ever since then some backfiring, idling off a bit

[HMatt]

^might want to start a new thread for that part.
