Now I've done tons of work on other engines but never messed with this type-3.5......so.....I switched to 10w 30 synthetic Mobil 1 a couple weeks ago and I don't ever remember hearing this "clicking" sound coming from the engine. Seems like this just started within the last couple days-its coming from the left-rear of the engine if you were to look at the engine as it would normally sit with the belts being at the front and the noise at the rear. Anyone have any clue?? It more than anything pisses me off to hear it since the car only has 3100 miles on it, also it seems to only do it when the engine is cold....Thanks guys-I know some of you have extensive knowledge about this engine series.

you know what... for as long as I can remember, I've heard some noises from the engine. Almost a clicking sound as if the oil were low or something, but I just dissmissed it as engine noise...hmmm...Originally posted by ToyzOriginally posted by simplyredwhat do you guys think about switching up the teams again?!

I do... its not that its a loud noise by anymeans (mine that is) its just annoying because you can hear it when you concentrate on it. Most people probably wouldnt even notice it. I just figured it to be the belt tensioner or something and never explored where it was comming from.....Originally posted by ToyzOriginally posted by simplyredwhat do you guys think about switching up the teams again?!

The thing is, they won't fix it, because it isn't considered a problem by GM.

I just mean if the clicking turns into a larger problem-then I'll take it in. The car doesn't do it all the time though so I guess it's the infamous GM click.TRADED IN BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN: 2006 GT Coupe in granite metallic, 15/5% tint, vinyl side marker deletes, Doctor Speed Stage 3 CAI, RED calipers by DupliColor, RED LED interior lights, 45 LED tail lights, WideView 8000K HID coversion kit, Nokya Artic White fogs installed, running MoBil 1, FIRST ever granite metallic color matched headlights!!

engine click noise
Brought my wife's G6 to the dealer the other day for a real faint click noise coming from the engine compartment. It was barely audible, you had to close the door to hear it. That told me that it was an EGR solenoid. When they called GM, they said not to do anything about it, it was supposed to be like that.

Umm well I can't say mine is EGR-its from the left rear of the engine-if you were looking at the engine as is should be with the belts being at the front.TRADED IN BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN: 2006 GT Coupe in granite metallic, 15/5% tint, vinyl side marker deletes, Doctor Speed Stage 3 CAI, RED calipers by DupliColor, RED LED interior lights, 45 LED tail lights, WideView 8000K HID coversion kit, Nokya Artic White fogs installed, running MoBil 1, FIRST ever granite metallic color matched headlights!!
