[QUOTE="TVSCobra, post: 12935116, member: 64473"] I have had this noise since I purchased the car 5 years ago. The noise sounds like a tick at idle. The noise doesn't increase with RPM and goes away around 1k RPMs. I just put in a Reman Cobra engine and ran Conventional oil during break in and seating the rings. I changed the oil a few times, again with conventional. I have about 1k miles on it now. I just put in full syn 5w30 and the noise started. Different oil filter make no difference, I going to put conventional oil back and just see if it goes away. The car runs great. It is the same noise my original engine had for 43k miles. I have listened to a lot of Terminators on youtube and most make the same noise. Here is my original engine noise: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TeDNnH-0DNU]03 cobra idle vid noise - YouTube[/url] Reman engine noise: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5CW-0xzuXc]Reman engine - YouTube[/url] Here is a well known members vid of his cobra: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C12mCiszJUo]Cobra idle vid - YouTube[/url] Here is a random vid of a terminator at idle (makes the same noise) [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CICvDnD7MAU]2004 Mystichrome Cobra.MP4 - YouTube[/url] Another terminator idle vid (random vid) [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuQ32fxj8do[/url] I would like some input and it would be nice if you guys can post some vids of your car at warm idle, with the camera just under the drivers door, or right underneath the front bumper, or as close to the oil pan as possible.
