EVERY MORNING WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED THERE IS A "CLICKING" NOISE. IT INCREASES IN SPEED WITH RPM. ONCE HITS 2000 (OR SO) RPM, NOISE WILL STOP. NOISE WILL ALSO QUIT AFTER 5 MINS OF IDLE. CANNOT DETERMINE CAUSE. HAPPENS REGARDLESS OF OUTSIDE TEMP, HOWEVER IS BETTER IN AZ SUMMER MONTHS. MECHANIC CANNOT FIND SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM. ALL IDEAS/SOLUTIONS WELCOME. *TR

PURCHASED BRAND NEW 2001 CHEVY TAHOE AND WITHIN FIRST 3 MONTHS NOTICED OIL LEVEL WAS LOWER THAN EXPECTED. BEGAN 'OIL CONSUMPTION' TEST WITH TRACY DEALERSHIP THAT EXTENDED INTO 2004 UNTIL THEY FINALLY AGREED 2 TEAR DOWN THE ENGINE...ALL 3 YEARS WAS ONGOING OIL LOSS WITHIN THE ENGINE! THEY ONLY WENT 2 THE CYLINDER HEADS DESPITE SEVERAL REQUESTS BY EXPERT MECHANIC'S ADVICE 2 GO FURTHER INTO THE PISTON LEVEL. TRACY CHEVROLET REPORTED THEIR FINDINGS AS 'PARTS MISSING FROM CYLINDER HEADS FROM ORIGINAL ENGINE ASSEMBLY'. GM'S CEO PROMISED 2 REPLACE MY ENGINE IF THE OIL CONSUMPTION WASN'T FIXED. WITHIN 1 MONTH OF THAT REPAIR, OIL LOSS CONTINUED. ANOTHER 'OIL CONSUMPTION' TEST SCENARIO WAS ESTABLISHED AND ANOTHER 3 YEARS PASSED WITH ME REPORTING 2 THEM EVERY 500 MILES FOR OIL LEVEL CHECKS. AGAIN, 3 YEARS PASSED BEFORE THEY FINALLY DECIDED 2 TEAR THE ENGINE DOWN AGAIN. (3/7/07). THE CYLINDER HEADS WERE FINE SO...
