I have a GMC terrain 2017 with over 270,000 miles. Hardly any problems with this car. Lately is been making slight clicking noises after driving over 4 to 5 thousand miles and when I changed the oil they put a small bottle of gas treatment in the tank and the clicking noise went away. Then again after certain miles close to have the oil change again started with the clicking noise so I repeated the process with the gas treatment and clicking went away. My question is will it be a good idea to put premium gas to the car? Will better gas will keep the clicking away until I take it to my mechanic?
Hey, just figured I’d put it out there, the clicking noise your probably hearing is either the fuel injectors or the high pressure fuel pump on the engine. It usually has a foam piece around it because it is noisy and makes a clicking noise. Parts may just be worn a bit that’s causing the noise, but with as many miles as you have on yours it may not be a bad idea to have them replaced. And I’m glad to hear it’s going strong, they usually don’t live that long. But as long as you don’t do long oil change intervals you’ll be in good shape.
