Tick sound?
After a drive and shutting the car off I seem to hear a tick sound from the engine and goes away after a bit, and I'm just wondering if this is normal while it happens all the time.
I also hear a strange sound when the car idles. I had a mechanic look at the car and he says I need new belts, is there anything else that might be the problem? This information does not help much but I'm going to get it audio recorded. |

The ticking is the car cooling down. More accurately, it's the sound of the hot metal of the engine contracting when it cools down. -Ted |
Thanks! Also can anyone answer the idle problem?
