98 Dodge Stratus ES - PLEASE HELP
Hi,
I have a 98 Dodge Stratus ES 2.5L V6 and I am having a problem that I just can't figure out. PLEASE HELP!
When I first start my car it runs and sounds great. As I am driving, it sounds great. Now, after I have driven and come to a stop, there is a ticking, clapping noise coming from under the hood. Once I apply the throttle it gets a little louder, and then completely stops.
This is just an intermitten problem, but usually does occur. If I turn the car off when it is ticking, and then back on, it doesn't do it....then when I drive and come to another stop, it starts it again. Also, if I come to a stop and it is making the noise, I can put the car in neutral rev to about 3k RPMs and release and the noise is gone. It does seem to be doing it more and more often and getting a little louder. The strangest thing is, it changes pitches and loudness every time. One time it could be really faint, and the next time I stop it could be loud.
Any help would be awsome. Thank you EVERYONE!
