Injector Noiselmdittrich 05-15-2008, 05:37 PM My engine clicks loudly on cold start for about 30 seconds and then quiets down. I was told it was injector noise and was fine as long as it stopped, but it is really loud. Is this something I should worry about or have checked? Davescort97 05-21-2008, 11:09 PM Welcome to AF. That noise you describe wouldn't be injectors. They do make noise but not to the extent of your problem. I would suggest that the lifters aren't pumping up until the engine has run for a while. If you live in a cold climate they will talk to you until the engine has run for a while. I would suggest changing to a lighter oil that will pump the lifters up faster. Change the oil and go to a 5w-30w weight. AlohaBra 05-22-2008, 11:30 PM factory oil is supposed to be 5W-20... vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
