Smethwick is four miles west of Birmingham city centre, with the M5 running to the west of the town. Several road accidents have been caused by speeding in Smethwick in the past ten years, with Manor Road and Hagley Road identified as hotspots for dangerous driving. There are bus services to Wolverhampton, West Bromwich, Blackheath, Harbourne, Dudley and Oldbury. The town also has three railway stations - Rolfe Street, Galton Bridge and The Hawthorns - with local and long-distance services.
Ticking and rattling are two closely related noises you might hear from your car. If you listen closely to where the sound is coming from and when it happens (while accelerating, for instance), you might be able to work out the cause.
The first thing to check is whether the engine oil is low, requiring a top-up - this is the best-case scenario. If your car is rattling and the sound is coming from the engine, it could be caused by a loose serpentine belt or timing chain. From the car's rear, it might be a loose exhaust or a broken catalytic converter, and the other possibility is worn suspension, which can cause rattling from the front or rear of the vehicle.
Possible explanations for ticking include worn spark plugs, knocking engine rods, dirty valve lifters and misaligned valves. You can learn more about these issues here.
Ticking and rattling noises should be taken seriously as they sometimes indicate a problem with the engine that could cause further damage if ignored.
