- WHAT VALVE LIFTER NOISE SOUNDS LIKE. WHAT CAUSES VALVE LIFTERS NOISE
If you have valve lifters noise and you are trying to figure out why you have valve lifter noise and what causes it we will show you all that. We took this engine apart and we want to show you what valve lifters look like, and why valve lifters can be noise. There are 2 major kinds of valve lifters. Some valve lifters are hydraulic and self adjustable, the other kind is manual valve lifters. In this video we will demonstrated how they work and what causes valve lifter noise and how to fix it. Most of the times valve lifters will not be easy to remove and replace. In this video we will explain what components will need to be removed to get to the valve lifters.

The accent definitely has some Russian vibe to it but the way your rollllllll those Rs has me thinking Holland may have been a place you hanged out on the way to the States.
fascinating vid on valve lifters - thanks
11 guys in the first minute…that came out wrong.
Since you never mentioned…how much would it cost for a job like this one? Btw 👍🏼like the vid
I like that you guys like to do a good thourough job on the vehices but I have a 2010 Dodge Avenger 2.5 L with lifter tick, car runs fine, good mpg, but don't the money for this and have heard a pint of atf left till oil change would help with cleaning engine for a while before upcoming oil change, could this help or hurt my engine
I had a game going for every time you said guys, I'd drink. But I was hammered by the end of the first 3 sentences, lol.
Thanks for the idea haha
Lmao that's funny. I think I tend to say so alot in my videos haha
6 shots deep in the first 20 seconds
It's a method used often when people know multiple languages and are speaking in a language that isn't their primary
@@FoolTheViking is that supposed to make your case better? Because it just sounds more pretentious. Wasn't saying you were intentionally "judging", just that it still boils down to making fun of a common verbal tick someone has as a result of utilizing secondary languages.

Ticking Sound’s at 1:07
Bless you
Unsung hero
The real MVP
What’s causes that noise ?
mines not so bad
No way.
My luck or the algorithm Gods smiled on me.
My 2.3 Ford Focus ST got a lifter noise and the first video I click is someone working on the same engine.
Huge props and have my sub.
FOOL!
So so so so useful! I never understood what this whole adjustment actually meant. Need to look up shimming still but at least I know what I'm looking at changing
Shimming is like putting coasters in your shoes
@@joeKisonue Surely its more like changing your shoes
dude great video, was going nuts trying to diagnose the noise coming from the head of my engine...thats exactly what mine sounds like!!! thanks!!
I got the same Noise Im just glad its not rod nock. Rock nock doesnt go away I assumed it was my valves I tooky my car apart and sent the heads to be fixed and then replaced the pistons and cylinders to handle what I do with my car. Its cheaper when you know whats wrong with your car.
@@burntchickennugget191 should the piston and cylinder replaced?
@@burntchickennugget191 you replaced the cylinders ?? What 😂😂
You guys ROCK!. I have referenced many of your videos to help work on my car. Thank you for your very clear explanation and detailed description of the necessary steps. It is very appreciated.
THIS IS THE SOUND I WAS LOOKING FOR, i believe its the tappet for my hpfp but i wanted to make sure before making the purchase....(2013 kia optima turbo)started after replacing the hpfp. Ordering now!
Did replacing the lifters fix it?
I'm watching this because my 2015 Forte!
Super informative and actually used information!
I think you guys are very informative. Keep up the good work!
thanks for video the sound made it super easy to compare to what I got going on!
Thank you very much for your time and effort ...
My friend told me, Nice man you converted to diesel...
Thanks, this was super informative.
Thank you for creating these videos
Thank you so much, i did a rebuild on a 2000 corolla and had this problem, i didnt know there were different thickness
Already solved?
Its a corolla, I dont even know tbh, its hard to adjust because you have to go to the junkyard to get new shims. I did my best but i cant tell if its gone or not, im done fqin with it.
@@virgilorlydelapena6942 Can you send me a contact off you? Facebook or Instagram or whattsap im learning with the buckets too
Gotta remember to put the crankshaft at TDC & mark it on the camshaft and crankshaft before you pull it apart makes reassembling the engine a lot easier
its usually already marked but yes good practice
Does a bad rocker arm or lifter cause engine knock as well as the ticking?
Good explanation.
My 4AGE 20valve has the same issue. Will sort it out over the weekend. Thanks mate
Already solved?
Hey bro I've got the same issue did it cost much being a 4age??
Thank you for your information
awesome post thanks mate.
As veteran mechanic on noisy valve trains....Before you tearing your engine apart to do this..Make sure you have plenty of oil pressure.Low oil pressure will make valve train rattle.If your not sure if enough pressure then add 1 quart of auto trans fluid to your oil and drive the car for couple days to see if the problems goes away..If it dont then change the oil and put 1 grade thicker oil in it and still add 1 quart of auto trans fluid.Then drive for a couple days agian...Sometimes the oil pump and or lifters get a varnish in them and they stick and dont function properly making extra noise due to lack of oil flow.The auto trans fluid has additives in it that wash the varnish away from the parts.
what if my check engine light is on and is making this sound as well? The sound is the exact same as the video
wow I didn't realize their even WAS a fuel pump. so I got an o2 4.6 gt.. I recently had oil changed and literally ticking started after next 2-300 miles.. my gauge reads high pressure and dipstick is at max and looks almost like it just came out of a bottle.. should I try these same things? I can't do major work myself and Google says anywhere from 1000-2500 to fix lifters.. I got 2 lil boys im tryna raise on my own I NEED this car.. heck I only drive 10-15 miles a day maximum
thank you! solid advise. Im curious if Marvel Mystery Oil is similiar to transmission fluid......or works in the same way.
In my opinion Atf in oil is a 30yr old trick for 60yr old vehicles that got abused. Modern oil are so far superior to oil from even 1999
@@scottieallen3201 I wouldn't freak out. Does the noise speed up with rpm? Are you sure it's not a rock in your tire?
Have you got a comparison video to show noise when tappers adjusted.
Very informative thanks
Great video , just took mine to another garage as my first one could not work out why i was losing power ect ,so took it to a new garage and he picked it up straight away and turns out i need the camshaft replacing as its damaged where it should be curved but is now roundard off and also the tappings which i assume is the loud noise from the front and he advised me to get timing belt ect replaced as he needs to take off anyways but a full day job.
RrrRrrRRealy helpful thanks :)
Thank you so much for this. I have a "spark" knocking v noise coming from my 2009 mitsubish lancer that is similar to this vehicle.
I have the exact same problem on my 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer i was wondering what the ticking noise was
Wow,a lot of work to make that adjustments!.
You know that tick,tick,tick,tick,tick you guys.
pretty loud
tick tic ti ck ti ck ti ck tick ti ck ti ck ti
Ohhhh my rickiieee tiiccckkeeerrr (Allo Allo) thats what my Kia sounds like now, hope it is just adjustment needed, not replacement.....
@@chriscs9080 tic tac tic tac tic - tac tac
This was helpful
Thanks for sharing. I didn't understand fully why the noise was happening. Is it because the valve lifter was worn out, meaning the thickness of the metal is worn down which creates space for the tapping sound? I just could not see from the video how to tell if the valve lifter is the main or only source of the tapping. Comparing a new valve lifter to a worn out one that needs to be replaced would have been more helpful.
*me hanging around car guys a year ago*- “sounds like your upper caliper isn’t connected to your exhaust”
*me after watching a year of car CZcams videos*-“ yea no, that’s definitely your hydraulic lifters”
Seeing the bad lifter would've been helpful. And is that the only part that causes the noise, or could the vavle be damaged also?
This is the video I was looking for - THANK YOU!!
Quick question - what's the moaning noise (at 1:19) that accompanies this lifter tick? A bad oil pump?? Got a 2017 Alfa Mito & mine is making that exact moaning sound + the ticking.
This is exactly what sound my mercedes c300 is making, hopefully this is the issue🤞
I'll finish the 1.6 yesterday Ford Fiesta and that's where I f***** up at, damn that noise
Do you happen know what could indicate the similar knowcking sound on higher speeds? Till 30-35 mi/h the car runs very quietly. It is 2003 Chevy Cavalier. The knocking sound starts ~ 40 mi/h, increases to maximum at ~55 mi/h, then goes a bit down.
Thank you. Coincidentally I also have a Mazda with a light tick sound that happens occasionally. 2013 Mazdaspeed3. I hope this is what the problem is!
Hey do you guys ever work on or show how to change a valve lifter in a 2018 Maserati ghibli please let me know
I love your videos but I hate it when you make several different videos for the same part.
good old valve adjustment after?
Fantastic explanation. Well done.
My truck just started making this noise.. it’s been 30° below for the last few months and it’s been fine up til now. It took like 30 minutes for it to go away yesterday. Started it up this morning & sounded fine initially. Then as I started driving I could hear the tapping again.
Any updates my golf mk4 just started doing this
good to know mate
Legand thank you
Its nice .
Where did you find the new lifters ?
any pointers on mazda etude 160e...they all the same but small tapping is still coming out
Where are you located I need my 2007 ford expedition fix for lifters
FINALLY I found the damn noise! My PT Cruiser started this about 4 months ago and it drives me crazy since once she's warm - it fades off.
Thank you.
I finally can explain the issue.
Cheers!
You never did say what needs to be done to fix the ticking noise. So do the valves need to be replaced or the valve bucket caps? Anybody know?
I have a 2015 mazda cx5 2.5 engine. I don't have caps, I have a rectangular-looking piece. How do I tell where the clicking is coming from?
I need the order of the caps on the 1.6l fiesta the head tipped over and sum fell out and there's nothing online
Can i install thicker valve lifter if the valve lash exceeds factory clearance?
Did you measure compression in cylinders before changing lifters maybe? Can they cause leakage in cylinders? I have 2.2 ctdi Civic with noisy lifters, injectors are all good and engine does not consume too much oil, aprox. 1l per 10000km but my problem is bad compression on cylinders 2 (12 bar) i 3 ( 16bar), cylinder 1 has 24 bar and cylinder 2 has 22 bar.
What was the problem?
my suzuki vitara 1.6 has same ticking sound, but less noise than that, its only 23,000km or 3yr old, should i need to replace that? does it reduce the performance? can you answer please? coz some people in forums said its normal in m16a engine coz they already replace it but in days past the ticking sound will still return, in confused what to do.
Great video. But, beside the noise, is there a problem with noisy lifter valves?
Depends by the noise, there are engine where a little noise Is normal but when the noise Is too much you are going to do damage, go to your mechanic and make It listen
Hi I’ve got a Volvo XC 90 2005 I’ve got clicking noise I believe it can be lifters but This noise you will hear only when accelerating and on 3000 revs suddenly stops like just switching it off also on the idle around very smooth any idea what it can be kind regards Peter
I have a 06 Accord I got for $800 at 200k something miles, put about 11k on it so far and it's had this similar knock since I bought it, but never affected anything so I never got it checked out. If this is how simple it is I'll definitely be getting it checked lol.
How much did it come out to?
parts are cheap... But Labor is expensive AF.
Hey bro how it going
On a oil change putting heavier grade will help dissappear noise?
Евала за клипа!
Hi guys having Same problem noise bad change hydraulic lifters on Fait Punto automatic 1.2.16v 2004 could it be the cam shaft
Exactly what mine sounds like
Do they actually sell the replacements though?
I get a tick that I assumed was lifter issue , it occurs a low revs and hi revs any idea why there is a sweet spot where the sound goes away ...is the con rod bearing likely?
What will happen when you mix your engine valves during overhaul?
you will have to measure and adjust the gap on every single one after you have re seated every one.
Was that a 3sgte on the ground ?
Before an oil change sometimes?
Can this cause glittery metallic oil with hydraulic style?
Need instructions to replace on 2008 Infinti G35
I have a Vauxhall Astra j 2011 1.6 petrol engine sometimes it’s behaving horribly!
It makes ticking noise s as and start to smoke white thick smoke! And as soon as you stop accelerating it comes back to normal! And advise you can give Thanks!!
How do you know what sizes go where? I accidentally mixed mine up?
I HV a avansis 2.0L 1AZ engine making knocking sound .halve lefters ...wat cn I do
Can you assist me I have bmw 316i f30 Fem module burned and I bought new 1 from bmw and I took it to programming when I plug it back it does not start it turn on, but is not cranking hope you can Asist regarding this issue
thanks so much , please help, how can I distinguish the knocking of worn out conrod bearings and the knocking of the valve lifters?
Spun conrod bearing may sounds like a random rattle because it will make a noise every time the conrod spinning, the noise have no certain intervals as it bangs around the rod and eventually worn out the cylinders too. Valve noise tends to have more certain interval.
@@rizaldyzulfiqarrachmad5964 thank u so much
where is your gaurage located?
Se oye exactamente como yo pensé que se oyen los valve lifters, ahora tengo más trabajo que hacer
I just thought that's what all old Hondas and Acuras normally sound like lol
If you never adjust valves, yes
That’s crazy, well at least I know I bought a crap civic off someone sadly
I love this video because I think it might've just helped me diagnose engine issues with my 2005 Honda Odyssey EX-L...yep, that's a model with the dreaded VCM engine. I do have a question, though, that the video doesn't address. Would it be possible for the ECU to throw codes for multiple/random misfires if the valve lifters are bad? I'm getting P0300, P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306....I know a lot of Google search results will show that this means it needs a valve adjustment. I've taken my van to 2 Honda dealerships and 2 independent shops that specialize in imports (1 specifically Hondas) and nobody can diagnose it. It passed all the voltage/compression, etc tests twice! It has a rough idle, but otherwise has PLENTY of power! I have a drivetrain warranty on my van, so I'm praying this will be the key in getting it properly diagnosed so it can finally be fixed. It has brand new Honda plugs and coils, my son and I cleaned the mass airflow sensor, removed the EGR valve to clean it, test it, check ports and replace the gasket. I'm getting ready to replace the PCV valve this weekend and drain and fill the transmission fluid again. The torque converter is noisy, but it shifts fine. 🤷♀️ If anyone in the state of Virginia sees this and wants to get a look at it, I'll happily drive it to you!
Can you confirm the correct OEM oil weight is currently being used? For example modern engines use fully synthetic oil at a very specific viscosity (5W-15 etc etc) and if mixed with or replaced with a thicker (5W-20) or thinner oil (0W-30) can produce noisy engine components.
6 misfire codes for each cylinder? No.
Normally when a valve is too loose or too tight, The knock sensor will detect this and tell the ECU to lean out the air/fuel mixture before catastrophic detonation and heat soak occurs.
Check your plugs & coil packs individually, The condition of the plugs will tell you a LOT about how good or bad each cylinder is running.
You say your Torque Converter is noisy? Are you SURE it's the Torque Converter and not the Flexplate/Flywheel maybe being cracked or warped and causing noise/shake at idle?
A cracked flywheel could most definitely throw off the Crankshaft Position Sensor, which would cause it to idle a bit rough and cause all 6 misfire codes because it can't keep up with the flexplate when it's shaking.
If the sensor can't smoothly get the signal exactly when the flexplate's button passes it; The the PCM cannot tell the coil packs when they should be advancing/retarded the spark of the ignition's timing in correlation to engine RPM's and you get those 6 misfire codes with a bit of a shaky idle.
Very useful guys thank you, it was helpful information. Are you guys in Russia?
Somewhere in Europe, not Russia
I saw California plates on a previous video
@@BitsOfInterest cool thanks I think though I hear a Russian or Ukrainian accent. I'm an American but I live over here in Russia so I hear that a lot from the people that are trying to speak English. I may be wrong it may be some other Eastern European. They may be immigrated to California
@@QOSQualityofSpeed Definitely not California native. To me it sounds in between a Dutch guy and Swiss guy speaking English (being Dutch and worked with Swiss). Though the syntax sounds more Eastern European, like Polish or other Slavic languages.
This can't be done without moving the timing belt?
My brother has a chevy Cruze and he is starting to get a tick slash knock noise whould it just be his lifters
Thank you so much for valuable information. Can bad lifters cause a motor to smoke?
Bad valve guide seals and or rings

how do you check this on VW 2.5l in line 5 cyl - noise comes on at idle goes away when driving ? rattle is obnoxious at idle 😮
How much for you to repair this on my car? 2008 Mazda 6s. 6 cly.
Does the sound speed up with the rpms going up when you gas?
Where are you guys located
I know this is an old post but if you happen to see this, I recently started hearing a noise similar to this but only when I am accelerating. After about 15 minutes of driving it goes away. If I left off the accelerator it goes away. Should I be looking at a lifter? We just had the moter rebuilt, frsh clean oil. everything was fine for a month now this noise. Oil levels are all good. look clean. Im wondering if something dirty got dropped into the block or valve covers. Also just put new injectors in.
I've seen way too much rtv used on the oil pan get on and block the oil pickup. After 2 months you start hearing rod bearings getting bigger. Definitely something to inspect
One of my lifters on my accord has been knocking for the last 30k miles. Still going strong. Not even worth the repair. Car already has 190k on it.
yo, can a timing CHAIN also produce a noise similar to this?
I'm not sure if my car is making this noise. Mine only does this at idle and sounds like a stopwatch not as loud either but its faster. It usually makes this noise on a cold start after it has been sitting. I've also been having an occasional starting issue. Could this sort of noise be anything else?
How old is the car? If you didn’t figure it out that sounds like a realllly bad fuel injector lol
Where’s the link for the actuator???
Hi how do I find the lifter that is making noise
Just had all 16 lifters replaced. I was 25k over powertrain warranty and Toyota covered it 🥲🥲🥲🥲
My car sounds like that but is inconsistent and mostly after it's been driven and in deive. I'm getting it checked tomorrow to know for sure but do you think it could be a valve lifter?
Did you ever find out what it was mate ? Mine inconsistent too only started yesterday
Tbh some cars just do it.
I’ve had a mk5 and mk4 golf both had noisy tappets. The mk4 golf is still going at 330,000km, bit noisy when cold.
Same with the focus zetec 1.6 engines.
Unless you plan on doing the head of the engine yourself just live with it 👍
Ad I find out tht my spark plugs are all wet when I remove it .meaning I hv to over roll the whole engine or how
i've literally never heard an engine that DOESN'T have a ticking sound like that. how do you not go insane trying to track down every single tick and click? there are a million moving parts and any one of them could be clicking
exactly my frustration.
on hearing my car engine, ive had recommendations from a professional mechanic saying 'nothing wrong', a veteran private car trader saying 'get rid of it' to a old car guy saying 'worn tappets' (my car is over 150k) which led me to this vid.
opposite to all of this, ive heard advice online that my specific engine just has loud injectors.
im trying to learn, who do i learn from correctly? 💀
Edit:
I just saw another comment that reminded me.
Someone else said loose belt tensioner or worn belt. lmfao
Because you likely heard direct injections engines, they are loud and make this noise
@@ruutjormun2262start with adjusting valves or replacing/cleaning lifters if ur car has them, if that doesn’t work, then keep looking lol, if it’s a grind/whine it’s probably something rotating could be a bearing water pump etc, a ticking is something moving back and forth, so could be valves, valve guides lifters, maybe rocker arm assembly. I’ve had one car fixed completely and sounds perfect with 180k after taking apart and cleaning lifters, but my other car (a Honda🤦♂️) ticks persistently even after valve adjustment, since it has no lifters, but some people just say some engines are noisy, so it’s hard to know
Hello, What is the sound in the red car at the beginning?
