*Chock chock chock* Sound when idling... engine problem?
Hey everyone,
I noticed this a long time ago but didn't really start bothering me until recently, maybe it's even louder.
When my car goes into idle at a stoplight or park without turning off the engine (only when it's almost standing still; and after being driven a while; 5 minutes or more) there is this weird clicking noise.
Not really "clicking" but like something is banging against something, I thought maybe it was the hood of the car banging around because it was loose but it definitely wasn't it; but that's what it sounds like.
Maybe an engine check is in order? I don't have the money to spend though, any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
