Hi guys
I was just driving home in an LS1 that i bought and it did some strange ****. It was defected and hasn't had a good run in months..apparently. Anyways I took it for a test drive yesterday and it had no noises in motor. After about 5 mins on the freeway it develops this nasty tick. Definitely in motor as it is fluctuates with RPM. Anyways after I pull off the freeway with the motor having been noisy for at least 5-10 mins I'm cruising through normal traffic and after sitting at a set of lights the noise just clears! I drive for another 5 mins and the noise doesn't return. It's done almost 300,000. Anyone had a similar experience? Thinking sludge in pick up or just some **** caught in a lifter. Oil is not super dirty but I'm going to do a filter and oil change tomorrow and just see if it happens again. THanks
