It's been going on for about a year or so, makes a clack clack sound. It sounds pretty bad, you can feel it when you touch the engine. it's like someone is taking a hammer to it on the inside, just pounding away. car runs pretty good even when that is going on. I tried to listen to it where the vtc is but it's hard to tell. but it seems to be where you fill the oil up.

what are symptoms of solonoids?
