Hey guys, I have a 95 Legacy L sedan that I've been driving for about 9 months now. It has 262,000 miles on it and runs like a champ. Paid 700$ for it and aside from very minor things it's been great. Lately I've noticed an engine sound that has me a little concerned. For the record the car has always ran very smoothly with no engine noise, misfire, or anything. Lately I've noticed that when idling every once in a while it will have a ticking sound happening for a few minutes. It's not super loud or anything but I definetely notice cause I'm always on alert for odd noises. Like I said, it only does it intermittently usually after running for a bit then sitting at an idle and if I Rev it up a bit the tick will go away for a while. It never used to do this. The oil level is good. I always change my oil at 3000 miles. I used Castrol High mileage 1040 for about 3 or 4 oil changes then this last oil change j switched to 1030 thinking that maybe the 1040 was too heavy. I thought with the miles it has a heavier oil wouldn't hurt. Anyways, I don't know if that has anything to do with the ticking but I thought I would mention it. Has anyone experienced this on their 2.2 liter subaru? Should I be concerned? What could the cause be? Thanks in advance. I can always count on this site for good Subie advice.
