- Series I VY SS Ute 5.7/M6
Hey guys.
I'm looking at buying a VY SS, unfortunately its a bit far away from where I live, so viewing the car is a bit hard, before I decide if I want to even go see the car, I asked the owner to send a video of the car on cold start, just to check if it has rod knock or anything.
The owner said that the car hasn't been started in 2 and a half weeks, but it produces a very audible ticking noise, does anyone have any idea what this noise is? Could it be the lifters? Could the oil have drained from the lifters while it's been sitting.

Thanks.
