Chirping noise after oil change

Hi,

I hear something which sounds like a rattle. Have you checked the engine oil to confirm it is full? Not being there makes it more difficult, but it sounds like something on or in the engine.

Let me know.

This sounds like a pulley or an engine rattle. Clearly it is metal to metal but the pitch and speed of the noise sounds like it is a pulley. I would take it in and they should cover it under warranty. However, we need to remove the belt and see if the noise goes away. If not, check the oil level just to be sure.

I doubt it is anything they did at the service unless they spilled oil or something on the belt. However that would start making the noise the same day or pretty quickly. Not a week later. This seems like a coincidence.

Let us know what they find or if you want to do this yourself, let us know what you find when you take the belt off. However, if it were mine, I would take it in even though I am in this line of work. Why take the time or money if this is covered under warranty.

Hi,

That is reset when the oil is changed. Is the oil level full? Here are directions for checking. The attached pic correlates with the directions.

Check
1. Engine Oil Level - Check

See pic 1

1) Park the vehicle on level ground, and start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm with no load (in P or N) until the radiator fan comes on, then turn off the engine, and wait more than 3 minutes.

2) Remove the dipstick, and wipe off the dipstick, then reinstall the dipstick.

3) Remove the dipstick.

4) Check the engine oil level. It should be between the upper mark (A) and the lower mark (B).

5) If the engine oil level is near or below the lower mark check for oil leaks, and add the engine oil (CLICK HERE) to bring it to the upper mark.

Let me know. As far as it saying 100%, once the maintenance light is reset, that is what it will read regardless if the oil has been changed, so we just need to confirm.

Also, have you mentioned this to the dealership? The vehicle is under 100% warranty.

Let me know what you find or if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe

Hi,

As far as the fuel type, if you had a valve ping, a higher octane would likely help, but that isn't what you are hearing. It could be related to the fuel pump pressure at the fuel rail. However, it's odd that you never noticed it before.

Is there a different dealership near you? I would think you could simply stop in and ask the service manager to listen to it and see what he feels.

Let me know.

I agree that if fuel type changed this then it could be a ping/detonation but after listening to that, I am thinking it is more of a pulley noise. Did they remove the belt to see if it goes away? If not, I would have this next dealer try that.

Thanks for the update. Keep us posted. Thanks

Hi,

Any mount is constructed using a rubber mount to absorb vibration. However, at 1,200 miles, that's hard to believe. However, anything is possible. Maybe the rubber portion of the mount has collapsed. Surely the mount hasn't failed due to mileage. Also, why would the oil change have been the turning point? I'm a bit confused. LOL

If you have a chance, please let me know if that takes care of the issue. I'm really interested in knowing if that is going to become an issue on these vehicles.

Take care,
Joe

Hi,

I can't see how sitting for that amount of time would affect them. Even if it was pushed into the ocean, they would last longer than 3 months. LOL

Let me know.

Take care,

Hi,

In all honesty, I'm not sure how that could be fixed. Are they actual cuts into the panel? Have you contacted the dealer to let them know what happened?
