Hello Friends,

I need help to fix the weird noise coming from my car. Engine is pretty clean. It's clicking noise comes everyday when I start my car. I thought it might be belt but that is not it. I went to mechanic often but when I went there no noise. It's almost 3 months now same problem. During this time as mechanic said one time it's camshaft sensor noise, did it , cost me $300.00. second time when I went there he said it's tension bearing. did it, cost me $ 85.00. I knew that it's not the case but I thought may be it should be a problem.

Till today noise is coming. it's an intermittent noise. Sometime comes sometime doesn't. need a solution.

It started coming when I bought a used car just 70 k miles on it. It is Ford Tauras 2003. nice and clean. after seeing a mechanic he said change the drive belt as there are 70k miles on it. I said ok. and after one month noise started. It's now 5 months no solution. Just spending money.

Can you please help suggesting right solution ?

Below is the video that I posted on Youtube.

any suggestion or help would be appreciated.

 

When the cam sensor was replaced, did the camshaft positioning syncronizer get replaced also? The squeaking usually comes from the syncronizer and not the sensor.
