    Would your check engine light come on if.......

    So if they put the wrong oil in my X this could make this clicking noise that i have been hearing. This clicking noise is like the same sound you hear if i car is running low on oil.

    Would your check engine light come on if.......

    Yes the sound is coming from the right side of the engine if you were standing in front of the vehicle. And the noise is coming from the front of the motor and towards the top right side of the motor by the valve cover. If the lifter were tapping would the check engine light come on?

    loud clicking noise when i start and even more when i acclerate

    I think it might be a lifter hitting somewhere in my valve cover. If i accelerate the sound of clicking goes faster if i decelerate it slows down but the noise is really loud. I just had my oil changed and my X has over 210,000 miles on her. Is it possible some gunk got into the lifter? I...

    Windows stuck and got power to master switch

    hey bro! You need to first check to see if you got power to the main switch. I believe it is the red wire. Use a volt meter and put the prong into the wire. And see if you got power to the switch. If you got no power to the switch you have a broken wire somewhere from under the hood to the...
