Hi all,
I have a 1998 Volvo V70XC that I am trying to sell, but things keep going wrong! For the last few months it makes a clicking noise all the time when it is running. The noise increases with the RPMs, so I originally thought it was just a problem with a stick in a fan or something in the engine. But it's gone on for so long that I would think it would have become dislodged by now. My mechanic told me it was nothing to worry about (I haven't decided if I believe that or not), but now the check engine light is on so I'm going to have to take it in again anyway, I'll have to talk to him.
Anyone here have any ideas what it could be? I did a search of the group and the only things that come up concern the air conditioning compressor. It's definitely not the air conditioning; the problem started in mid-December and has continued -- I haven't turned on the AC yet. Also, the sound is constant, not just when the climate control fan is running.
Thanks for any help!
