[QUOTE="alvin24, post: 257255, member: 63"] Thats engine knocking / pinging. GSR5559, To be exact.... all 4G9X series have the same problem. I'm having it on my 4G91 as well. yes, it doesn't really cause any problems... but its pretty darn irritating. I'd rather get it serviced and be rid with the sound... the tappet sound problem comes from revving the engine too high too long too much. I have a friend who drove his 4G91 without really revving it (slow driver)... he never had such tappet problems. :o :o :o really something to wow about. Hehehez. If minor tappet problems... u'll only hear it during cold starts. More serious tappet problems, u'll hear it constantly till u rev ur engine above a certain RPM then it goes away for a while... before it comes back again. Also remember to check your oil level... insufficient engine oil can cause tappet sounds as well... assuming your tappets are actually in healthy conditions. [/QUOTE]
