weird noises
Tuesday, December 11, 2007 6:50 PM
I have a 97 cavalier with a 99 2.4L and i have some noises i was wondering if anyone else has had?

The first noise i have is an tick at idle and a rough idle but when i rev up the car in the shop it smothens out.
On the road when i get on the car there is a apparent tick only above 3,000 rpm. almost like the timing chain is rattling
But i just changed the oil and its still there. could this be a collapsed lifter or maby the timing chains?

The second noise i have is like a constant grone when speeds exceed 35 mph and louder the faster you go up tell 60
where the noise stays constant volume, when i put it in neutral it still is there, when i turn from side to side it stays the same.
I rotated my tires and its not that. just wondering if anyone else had this problem and if it could possibly be the differential bearings.

Much help appreciated to anyone with experience!!! THANX
