[QUOTE="2013.5.0, post: 14715316, member: 168033"] [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSTMuIfQGKY[/URL] This is my car last August. Two things that people are bringing up: Track pack cars, and non-motorcraft oil. The ticking started with my car at 47500 miles or so, as far as I could tell it never happened before. I started putting full synthetic in the car--mobil 1 5w20--around 20,000 miles. The 47500 mile oil change the dealership put in the synthetic blend accidentally. This is the first time it ever did the oil change tick. It's had a ticking noise on the right side that it seems many people have, for a long time, but the dealership has always said it's normal. I ask every time I go there more or less to make sure. This is my car after getting the oil changed by the dealership. This is the first time it ticked: [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcBT6nyATcw[/URL] I went to the dealership once but couldn't get the noise replicated. I got rid of the oil immediately, putting back the full synthetic as I'd been using it for thousands of milees with no problem. The tick remained. Through mobil 1, redline synthetic, and amsoil ss, all 5w20 it has ticked as in these videos, from then on. I'm at 57600 miles now with Amsoil SS 5w20 with 1600 miles on it. The car still ticks a bit going up a hill, but only at around 1800 rpm-2000rpm. I got a UOA for the first time at 56000 miles with the redline synthetic in it.
