Knocking/ticking noise behind usual engine noise
2005 Grand Marquis LS, 150,600 Miles. Just replaced the EGR valve after purchasing the car a few weeks ago. Changed the oil last week, used 5w20. There was a quiet squeal like there was an issue with a belt or pulley or something. But only on cold start. By the time I got down the road and up to speed it went away. Haven’t heard it in a few days now. noise I’m worried about is a ticking/knocking coming from the motor when it isles and when I accelerate. I’ll post a video or two of the car running, it might not come through in the audio. Going to get it diagnosed Thursday, but it’s $120 for an hour of labor. Not thrilled about that bit. Any advice or possible recommendations would be greatly appreciated |
Turns out my left catalytic converter was destroyed. Shop quoted me $427 on the repair. $75 for labor, $307 for the part. I was able to find the part online for $162, and a buddy who runs a shop a few towns over is going to throw it on for $60. happy camper. |
