[QUOTE="Sajin, post: 16606446, member: 91822"] The car isn’t under warranty. I did speak with the previous owner about it. Some updates on the issue... Haven’t went to the dealer yet. Went out for a drive today to get the car nice and hot as it’s 84f today. Did a lifter bleed procedure on the car which consisted of running the engine at 3500 rpm for 5 minutes at idle after getting the car up to temp. Coolant temps reached 235f at like the 4 minute mark, so I let off the throttle, and got out the car to check for the noise. The noise was gone at 235f coolant temp, but the noise returned once the car cooled back down to 210f coolant temp. Did the above procedure a few times, and each time was able to get rid of the noise temporarily. So the car doesn’t tick at cold start, and doesn’t tick even when idling to normal operating temp. Car must be driven 10 miles then the tick will start. Getting the car hot doing the bleed procedure makes the tick go away temporarily until the car cools back down. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
