Ticking noise... vvel i think
Hey guys my car just started making this rapid ticking noise from the top back of the engine after some aggressive driving. There is a small metal tube that rapidly spits out air in sequence with the knocks and thats where its coming from.
I have read the other posts. Seems this is very common and no one has a for sure answer to it except use ester oil.
The interesting part is that i just got the car back from the dealership after they changed a valve cover under power train.
My car is a 2012 g37s with 61k.
Do you think the dealership changed the oil? Is that common to change oil during a value gasket? And maybe that caused it. I have never had the oil changed because I bought it with 60k on it this pasted NOV so not sure what was in it before.
Thoughts?
