Topic starter

Mazda 3 172,833 miles. AC is off. 

At the risk of asking about this again, I wanted to know if this normal from my engine is normal or not. 

What is that ticking noise and is it normal?

It looks like valve lifter to me. 


Is that a serious problem?


It varies depending on the situation. Check out this link:

Thanks for the article. Maybe when I get my refund, I'll drive up to Scotty and let him assess my engine's health.
