DanGX Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Hi guys, it's me again. I've noticed over the last couple of days a ticking coming from the engine. Starting it's fine, but when driving or left to ideal after the drive, I can hear a ticking. Now, it sounds like it's coming from the pulley of the timing belt - but as mentioned previously, I have the mechanical know how of a squirrel. Based on the collective know how of my esteemed colleagues here, is it serious (i.e. time for a timing belt change) or is it just because it's old? Thoughts?

DanGX Posted January 14, 2009 Author Share Posted January 14, 2009 Yes, when idle and they pick up pace when I accelerate. If that is the case should I be worried? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sypher_44 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 you should not be worried a actually thought something was bad with my soup... until i went to a supra meet and discovered that all off them sounded like that put you ear to the fuel rail with the injectors... between the cam cover and the ects shiny thing the sound should come from there...
