When I forst start the X up in the AM, I hear what sounds like a lifter from the right side. In less than 5 seconds it is gone. My driveway has about a 5 degree downward tilt and slight cant to the left side. Anything to worry about, experiences, etc.
Thanks

Mine did that for a while then I hear its normal. Any way I played around and found if I keep the oil at the top of the hash on the dip stick it stopped it from happening. I also noticed if the oil was getting dirty it would also rattle a little.

yall are hearing things. theres no way that old oil is going to cause a noise 
I change the oil at 2500 and I keep the stereo turned up so I cant hear anything else........plus the thing is soooo quite that I cant hear outside noise,,,,,,,,
It really is all about size!!!!!! |
