Weird Tick at idle....

I was wondering if this is normal or not. It's been there ever since i bought the car off the lot new, and even another i test drove had the same thing.



Thanks!!

If it was a V8 I'd say lifter tap. Incidentally were you driving north the 17 on Saturday? I saw a Synergy that looked just like your car.

Nope, I haven't been on the 17 yet since I got it. I have only seen 1 other green one near my area, not sure if they live near me or not.

Yeah I hit pretty much every corner of the state and I've seen two that would match your car, the other was going south on the 202 today. You heard of the Arizona All Gens club? There are actually a ton of guys that have similar cars to you. We hit a lot of local car shows you might want to check it out on my user page if your interested.

Yep perfectly normal. It's the very noisey direct injection system

LOL, yeah we hit the Pavillions pretty frequently. A couple weeks we actually did the Coffee and Cars on Double Tree in Scottsdale. 10 of us showed up and threw a wrench in the foreign car boys little show.
