2008 SS/TC Loud Clicking?
Hey Everyone,
After reading through every review and post on this forum, I decided to get the SS T/C and finally found one. Thanks to everyone for all the info. One Question though.. Its got a loud tick to it especially when it starts up, after a few minutes it get quiet but its still there. The A/C isn't on. I remember reading somewhere that this is normal, but is it really and if it is what is it? |
It is normal. I believe it is the direct injection.

The "tick" really bothered me at first. Not so much anymore. Give it time

Yes, your car will sound almost like a diesel at idle.

we're probably going to get alot of these, so glad you made it a sticky. i can totally see people driving hard, and then someone telling them their car is making sounds.
it will probably be really loud with the hood open too :lol: but like said, it's normal and nothing to worry about. |

i cant wait for the people that will take their ss/tc into warranty for "a ticking noise" only to be told thats how the car sounds.
|
friend of mine works at bennett chevy, he said the new car manager brought one into the bay because it was making"a weird clicking noise" lmfao!!! he sells the cars!!
|
when I showed my brother my car for the 1st time, I cranked it and then popped the hood... he was like "I hear metal clinging, you better take it in immediately"...
|
direct injection is gonna surprise a lot of people in all the newer vehicles it is starting to come in
|
Di has taken over the Audi and BMW lineups...
