I have a Maxima 2001,  there is a slight ticking/tapping noise when the
engine is running.  No service lights are on.  Wondering if it could be a
tear in the timing belt that is hitting on the outer protective casing or
valve.
Thanks, Keith

Not likely, as you have a timing CHAIN. It is possible you are hearing
the injectors.

I have noticed a reduction in gas mileage.

Is the noise constant, or, does it disappear as the engine warms up?

It seems to come and go.
