2002 Camry xle 2AZFE engine clatter??
I am trying to figure out an engine noise and whether or not it is a serious issue or not.
i recently bought this car, it has 196k miles. The symptoms i get happen mainly when cold, and sound like valve clatter to me. It happens at first start for 1-2 seconds and is sometimes better or worse, after its warm the engine is super quiet and usually doesnt clatter again until its been sitting 2 or more hours, and then its "usually" not as loud as first start. i changed the oil right after i got the car, i used full synthetic napa 5w30 and a napa silver oil filter. Then i pulled the p.s. pump and cleaned the oil control valve filter which was in need of cleaning, testing the valve itself determined it needed to be replaced, with a clean filter and a new ocv solenoid it is still making that noise I am hoping somebody can help me out, here is a video of the noise i get, it does get louder and more pronounced at times then the video shows. https://youtu.be/aTRI7THpLMc |
The engine is known for cold start chatter.
Use a section of hose as a stethoscope to narrow down the location of the noise. Check in the areas of: intake manifold, intake camshaft timing gear, valve cover area, firewall side of timing chain cover. |
