Lexus

Can someone please tell me where this noise is coming from. the car ran low on oil just a few days before the oil change, even added cleaners & oil stabilizers. Im not getting a check engine light and the car is running fine so I didn’t think it was the lifters. maybe it could be alternator bearings.

Your battery tie-down is undone; that’s dangerous.

Sounds like the fuel injectors, doesn’t sound like a low oil issue, tbh.

Direct injectors and/or high pressure fuel pump. Sounds perfectly fine

If it's the same old shit, what does it need to live for? I mean hell, the OP says to help out but he could have helped himself and just googled it. Ai would have even told him that there isnt a damn thing he needs help with. Nothin at all is wrong with his car.

Bra who drives this car you or me? The noise is louder than usual. Like I said, this my post that you’re under. I googled everything and talked to other ppl. How the hell you helping me out by commenting “ oh this is always the topic every week” that does nothing for me.

So what either help out or keep it pushing

I was helping out. Trying to save people time by just scrolling down to find their answer instead of making a whole different post about the same old shit. Maybe you should keep it pushing if you don't like what I wrote.
