Grinding on startup

Postby lebanesepathy » Thu Jul 03, 2014 9:47 am

I've noticed that when I start the pf a grinding soud comes before the oil guage comes up. I have the ses light on but hasn't pulled the codes yet.

the code may or may not be related to the noise, but it would be good to find out what it is
a mechanics stethoscope would be helpful to locate the noise
