If you want to book a ticking or rattling noise repair in Walsall, you can compare quotes from our network of thousands of garages and mechanics, find the best price and instantly book online.
Walsall is served by the M6, which connects it to the M1 towards London and the M74 towards Glasgow. In 2021, 0.91 billion vehicle miles were travelled on the town's roads. Fortunately, Walsall was recently given a cash boost to fill in its potholes, so you can expect to encounter mostly well-maintained roads. If you want to get around by public transport, over 90 bus routes in the area are run by National Express West Midlands and Diamond West Midlands.
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.
