I recently noticed a strange clicking noise coming from the engine of my Audi 80. It seems to happen every time I start the car and persists for a few minutes, then goes away. What could be causing this and is it something I should be worried about?
ReplyHi Katie, it's possible that the clicking noise is coming from a faulty valve lifter. This can happen over time due to wear and tear on the engine. It's important to get this checked out by a mechanic as it can cause damage to the engine if left untreated.
Katie, it could also be a problem with the timing belt or a loose belt causing the noise. It's best to have a mechanic take a closer look and make any necessary repairs to prevent any further issues.
I had a similar issue with my Audi 80 and it turned out to be a faulty spark plug. I would recommend getting all the spark plugs checked and replaced if necessary to see if that resolves the clicking noise.
