Clicking sound is coming from the area of throttle body when key is in ON position (engine is not running). What might that be, because I got SES on again and don’t know if it’s related or not. Thanks in advance.

 

if something is wrong well our cars do the same... so I think it is normal

 

i know mine clicks for a little bit right after i turn my car off.

 

I wonder what it is..

 

i think is the gas pump or something I know someone explained this a long time ago here..... if I'm wrong well it was a long time ago and I don't remember what I did yesterday... so

 

Im curious to see what it is too. I've always wondered.

I dont think it would be the fuel pump though, cuz that's in the tank under the rear seat.

 

On the 2002-2003, the noise after you shut off the car, is the throttle butterfly valves opening and closing twice. I cant remember why it does it. Probably a test.

TB plates resetting their position sensors.

 

ok, i found out why my SES was on. Turnes out oxygen sensor, code PO175. Computer said that mixture was too reach in o2. Don't know if this is related to the clicking though.
Is it possible that due to faulty o2 sensor my car was stalling sometimes on worm startup and RPM’s weren’t steady (from time to time)when idling, going up and down by 100? Thanks everyone.

 

Yep. 10 char

 

what's 10 char, i'm slow

 

10 Characters... cuz you cant post without at least 10 characters.

 

lol, i remember here somewhere there was a thread with all the codes(PO175), can anyone give me a link to it?

Thanks

 

the clicking neat the TB is normal when u turn the ignition to ON before the engine starts, and when u turn the car off, thats the IACV making the noise.
