Hey guys,

So I noticed that my car has been making a weird and loud ticking noise while in Drive but as soon as i switch over to Neutral the noise goes away. Anyone know what it is/suggestions to fix it?

Thanks

 

Something is probably rubbing against something in your engine bay or under your car. If you are driving, it might be the window cowl. There is a DIY on that. I get that when i drive.

 

Is it more noticeable with the windows down? Is it constant, or intermittent? Does it change (tick faster) with more speed?

 

I Had a weird ticking noise as well but it came as soon as i accelerated and turned. it turned out to be the heater hose..kinda sounded like it was coming from my dash. if that helped

 

I heard that same noise today for the first time. Can you tell me where I can access this heater hose. This ticking noise is weird and ny car only has 17K miles.

 

So it was gone for a day or so haha but I noticed it when driving to SF today. I can hear it just a bit then once I get on bumpier roads it becomes more apparent, but I also heard it going on relatively okay roads.
I asked my friend if she heard it too just to make sure I wasn't just hearing things and she said she heard it. It seems to be coming from the rear rather than anywhere in the front,engine bay, etc...

I'm going to clean out my car tomorrow just in the odd chance it's something just rattling in the back but I don't think so. If it then.... hahaha
