Valve clatter at low revs?
Thought I heard a little valve clatter or pinging at low revs under load this evening; it is relatively cold outside (20*) tho' the engine was fully warmed up.
I've seen some other 'Diesel' references here; is a little clatter normal? Thnx, Moon |

Drive mode ? I notice the engine RPM is very low, 1200-1500RPM when motoring along in D, causes engine to lug & clatter a bit. (city/rural driving)
I only use D when I'm out on the interstate where its a constant higher speed.
