Weird noise

[mthorn11]

I looked all over and the best way to describe it is it sounds like a baseball card in a bike spoke while accelerating up hill mainly and it's really faint my passengers can't hear it but I do and it drives me nuts any input is greatly appreciated thank you

Exhaust leak or lifter tick?

 

[mthorn11]

Never thought of it being a lifter tick is there anyway to check ?

You could swap lifters lol. Does it do it all the time? Do you have a video?

 

[mthorn11]

Lol It won't do it until I'm accelerating up a hill and it's to faint to be picked up on camera I'm just gonna have it looked at or deal with it

Try going up a hill in 3rd gear, I'm willing to bet it wont make the noise.

When the car is n 4th gear its working alot harder to get up that hill, hence the noise. In 3rd gear the rpms are higher and its not working as hard.
