| Answer: | Jordan, You may have a drive belt or idler pulley problem. If you have 60,000 miles or more on your belts, you should have them replaced. Your problem could also be valve noise or lifter noise. This can be caused
by lack of engine oil or dirty engine oil. Check your engine oil level,
and change it with a fresh oil filter if your oil looks dirty. If you
live in an area where the weather is starting to get very cold, you should
be sure to use 5W-30 engine oil. A fresh oil change may be all you need. |
