2002 Kia Rio lifter noise??

Jul 01, 2003 1 Replies

Today my 02 Rio started to lightly tap/click after starting up. I stopped the engine and checked the oil it was full and car has always had service when needed. It has 21k on the clock. The sound is like that of a car with out of adjust tappets but since these things have lifters there is no adjustment. Anyone else have this problem?? Thanks Chuck


these cars have shims that new u might want to check timing belt for slack
