What’s That Ticking? | Madison Auto Care

One of Madison Auto Care's seven NAPA service centers can help you track down the problem and repair it when your engine makes a ticking sound.

You were driving home from the Concert in the Park when you noticed your car's making a ticking sound. The noise can be heard outside the vehicle. It announces your arrival. You’d much rather have a quieter ride.

Engine ticking can be loud and annoying. Some causes are normal – such as the ticking from purge and PCV valves and from fuel injectors, according to motorbiscuit.com. But that ticking usually isn’t very loud, unlike the noise made when something’s wrong.

Motorbiscuit.com lists five possible causes of ticking:

  • You’re low on oil.
  • The lifters on the cylinder head are worn out.
  • Your car’s valves could be badly adjusted.
  • Your spark plugs might be damaged.
  • The car’s drive pulleys could be worn out.

If none of those is the cause, motorbiscuit.com suggests having a trusted Madison auto repair specialist track down the cause.

If you don’t have a regular mechanic you can trust, give the reliable Madison Auto Care pros at one of Madison Auto Care's seven conveniently located NAPA service centers a chance to help youClausen Auto, Handel Auto, Genin’s Auto, Capitol Tire, Odana Tire, Hansen’s Auto, or Aeschbach Auto.
