sounds like a vlave train issue. or oil feed pump problem.

 

this isn't a ticking noise, it's more of a banging noise.
example of the sound: the subway system, a big rig truck or an old Volkswagen engine.

 

wow are you an audiophile? you so smrt.

 

I know I am smart ^^

 

no i said "SMRT"

 

I know!!!

 

I had the same exact noise... had to get the ECM reprogrammed with the TSB update:

Itb08-028: Noise From Bank 2 Vvel Actuator WITH the Ester oil change, and the noise is totally gone for me.

The first time they did it, they didnt change the oil to ester, and I could still hear the noise slightly. Took it back and they said they forgot to do the oil change with ester oil. They did the reprogram with Ester Oil the second time around, and all was fixed for me.

 

NIce. I will take in the TSB along with the one for the radio stations getting stuck......THANK YOU
