So just want to know if this is normal. I have a short commute with only a short 6 miles to work. When I arrive at my destination and turn the car off I hear ticking sounds like it was overheating. I would only heat it when the car is turned off and outside of the car. It would tick every 5 seconds. It would last for 10 minutes before subsiding, but just want to know if anyone else have this? or should I bring my car in to get it check out. I have a 2015 premium white crosstrek with 9000 miles now.
May I congratulate on an Awesome color choice:rock:
The ticking sound you are hearing presuming it is coming from Outside of the car is Quite Normal,as it is coming from the exhaust system, from the Catalytic converter to be precise,temps there can reach 2200 degrees
It will disappear over time as the metal stretches, so nothing to be concerned with.
I just heard this too. Got somewhat concerned and thought I'd hop onto the forum to see what it was. Thanks to both of ya! And welcome to the forum as well! Cheers
