Why does my car make a loud noise when its cold?
Cold weather can exacerbate underlying car problems, so you may begin to hear squeaks, squeals and other funny noises you haven’t heard before. These noises may be caused by the engine belt, the serpentine belt, the air conditioning compressor or a power steering pump.
Why does my engine make a ticking noise when I warm up?
Not sure. The other possibilities for this noise in general are: 1) exhaust leak at the manifold. Judging by numerous YT videos, an exhaust leak at the manifold makes the same bad ticking noise and goes away when warmed up; and 2) Piston slap. GM will claim piston slap is normal but it’s not.
Why does my car make a noise when I Turn on the engine?
The tappets sit against springs which return the tappets to their original position after movement by the cam inside. This noise is normally caused when the engine oil pressure is low or when the springs or camshafts are worn. Make sure that the car has enough oil by checking the oil level with the dipstick.
What kind of noise does a car make when it is low on oil?
There’s a distinctive sound that the car engine makes when the oil is low. It resembles a clicking, ticking or tapping noise. Thankfully, this condition is one of the easiest to diagnose; just take a look at the dipstick. You can also resolve the issue easily by adding more oil. However, adding oil is a short-term fix.
Why does the noise in my Jetta go away?
Maybe, just maybe, the noise the Jetta makes goes away because of better oil flow throughout the engine when hot.Pushing down the gas pedal probably raises the engine noise and drowns out the other noise. hey, a bottle of Lucas costs $10. Replacing the manifold a few hundred. What’s the damage trying it? Deleted.
This type of noise is usually caused by malfunctioning valve lifters or an exhaust manifold leak. If the noise lasts for more than a minute and completely disappears or dimishes after the engine is warm, the most likely cause is an exhaust manifold leak.

Why does my exhaust make a tapping noise when I warm up?
The noise always goes away with fresh oil. if it is the exhaust manifold, it is what it is. could just be the manifold gasket? or the donut gasket between the the pipe and manifold (if it has one) if it is an oil problem (and just to be safe) I would at the very least let it warm up and stop tapping before I put any load on it by driving in gear.
