I have a "chatter" noise coming from the passenger's side of my engine, you can hear it best if you crouch down by the front right tire and listen through the wheel well...

The sound only seems to speed up slightly with the rpm, it's consistent no matter the engine temperature...

It doesn't seem to get any louder or quiet down regardless of engine temp

New oil, new oil filter, new fuel filter, no fuel in oil, oil on full mark.

Racer220-

You hit the nail on the head, brother. tick tick tick tick tick, somewhat speeds up with engine speed, but it doesn't sound like it's matching the engine's speed above idle (I hope that made sense)

Nothing I can do about it? Seriously? Damn, that pretty much sucks. On the other hand, at least I don't have to go dump $1,200.00 into it for a valve adjustment.

It runs great... Just gets on my nerves when it sounds like my valve train is trying to jump out of the hood.

Theunderlord- It does sound kind of like a typewriter now that I think about it... But I hear mine mostly on the passenger's side, and moreso in the front wheel well (passenger's side)... It's running fine, just irritating and worrysome.

ltzgolf- I'll check it out, but I highly doubt it, the original ownership was in Georgia- however, I'm not sure where it was manufactured.
