Car Forum / Honda Cars / July 2004accord 2003 soft ticking noise coming from engine
Does anybody heard a ticking(!?) noise coming from the engine but heard only on complete silence under the steering wheel , specially at idle speed ? If you push the accelerator and release it , it goes away and then it's back a couple of seconds after been idle ? Could it be a pushrod ? The dealer says it's just because the engine is new (12,000 miles). I can digitize the sound and put it on a website in case you need more information.

So maybe , if it's 3 ticks every second, it's the valve guide or piston hittin the cylinder ? > There's no pushrods in that engine. > [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > > > !! possibly fuel injectors? > Hey that's right (OHC) Thanks God!!

Since it is a relatively new car, some dissimilar metals mating at different temperatures/expansion rates like the exhaust stove against the manifold, converter, etc. It could as simple as a plastic fan hitting something. > Does anybody heard a ticking(!?) noise coming from the engine but heard only > on complete silence under the steering wheel , specially at idle speed ?
