im starting to have ticking noises around 3k dont know what the problem is.

valve adjustment? low oil? money shift? timing chain tensioner? how many miles? if anyone is going to diagnose this for you, you'll need to provide more info. good luck

lots of good places to start in post above.

On any gear? Does it happen if you rev the engine to 3k rpm via the throttle body wheel?

Sounds like your valves are out of spec. I have the same noise around 3K, almost at 90K and am about to do my valves.

I'm 27k miles and it happen in 1-3 kinda feels like the valve but not sure a friend of mine told me that but we didn't have a valve tapper tool. Like the feeler gauge.

I'm pretty sure valve noise should be at idle, not driving at 3k rpms.

i have this same issue. but my valves and oil and tct are good....i duno wtf it is

do you think weather would make something like that happen? btw i also have this weird idle prob too after cold start and i fully warm it up the rpm sometimes stay at 1500 rpm for like 2 sec i was reading that it could be the map sensor.

I also have ticking noise EXACTLY 13 MPH. The weird thing is I only hear it in the morning when I first start my car and on the first time I shift to 2nd gear. It goes back to normal on the second time though. Am I worrying too much ?
