I was surprised how loud the ticking noise was soon after changing the plugs. I don't know whether it was the injectors or the valvetrain. Now it does sound normal to me. I posted following my promise and to get some reassurance. Thanks.

Mine is supercharged. 26k miles on it and it had the ticking noise for a week. People told me it was just the lifters and I knew it sounded a lil more abnormal. It finally gave out on me while cruising on the freeway and blew up oil/ smoke all out of the exhaust.
The shop is going to pull it apart soon and see what the damage is. It doesn't seem to be good though

Getting it towed sucked. Good thing I had enough time to coast it in a safe location to get it towed. I am guessing the bearing failed and broke the rod/ piston so oil came out of the exhaust valves. I am mad. lol

I have till June... but I don't think they'll do anything because of the supercharger.

On the bright side. I'm thinking of a stroker/ supercharged v8 motor or m5 v10 supercharged motor swap

I guess my lesson here is not to neglect any abnormal noises and beware of that ticking time bomb of death!

No it happened a week after. I didn't drive it hard since the ticking noise was there. Also gas is 91 octane in Cali and I believe it's suppose to be on 93 so I didn't push it hard. I was cruising back to sd from oc when it randomly happened. I will post an update when the shop finds out.

If you want to run high HP in CA on 91 octane you need to lower the CR of the motor or make sure you always have race gas in 100% of the time, no exceptions. |
