Mazda starts and makes tapping ticking sound.

Postby Dragonqueen » October 12th, 2022, 3:36 pm

So My Mazda 323 bj has been doing this a while now.
When it starts like in the morning and evening it gives a tapping /ticking sound, sounds like somewhere behind engine. Was thinking if the alternator bearing could sound so?.. Heard people saying its my Lifters etc. but I am not sure.
So other than that when driving in traffic when idling it vibrates hard unless I put it in Neutral. Dont know what's that either, the RPM reads good.
Also thinking my Catalytic converter also giving some trouble, but I do not know what is going on with my car, I know its old and needs some attention but I just don't want to guess I want when I fix something that's the answer. Too many people saying its one thing and another but I want to be sure. Who is an expert in Mazda?
I did a service, changed oil twice, serviced , took down and cleaned out throttle body, cleaned the injector system already.
