I don't know much about cars but that doesn't sound like lifters or fuel injectors.

 

[Slick Blackwings]

RIGHT TO DEALER!!!!

 

[JLayer]

That's gonna hurt

 

[mfbmike]

Yeah, that doesn't sound great. :|

Hoping it's nothing serious.

 

[Slick Blackwings]

Is it a manual?

Is it a manual?

Yes

 

[MookdocOE]

Praying for ya brother!

 

[Slick Blackwings]

Strange that it seems to be only the manual engines having issues, I know they’re built with different components, but I have yet to hear an automatic going down?

Sounds like a rod knocking, due to spun bearing failure. Take it to the dealer.

Damn I hope not. Going out to start it now for a listen.

Watch this short video. I feel 90% like it is a lifter ticking, and the weird thing is that about once a minute it goes away for a few seconds and then comes back, as you can hear in the video.

 

[5VBW Nick]

Just took it for a 10 minute drive and it's gone (for now).

Something ain't right. It sounds like my 429 8cyl engine when it first starts up until the oil builds pressure.

 

[Grainofsand]

that doesn't sound normal

Doesn't sound at all like a rod knock, its a ticking lifter. Rod bearing failure comes from the bottom and is a heavy metal to metal knock and sometimes isn't consistent, meaning it sometimes it isn't present at idle for instance.

Are you 100% sure the dealer used the correct oil? I usually go back to the last thing that changed and start there. I'd either learn to do the change myself or find a good independent shop that you trust for things like oil changes.

No idea, changed before purchase. Thinking it's time for a change though

 

[Slick Blackwings]

If it’s rod knock there would be fluctuation in your oil pressure, I know from experience on other motors!

I believe the BW's call for Dexos 2 motor oil. The CT5-V BW require 10 quarts !
