Hello acuraziners just picked up a 99tl.. Need help...When my car is in idle.. i noticed a ticking sound coming from engine bay... I looked around and found where the ticking is coming from... its a relay ... is this normal? thanks for all of your help

 

Yes its very common. Its the purge control solenoid. Its like 30 bucks at the dealer and a 5 min job if you want to get rid of it. It wont effect any thing if you dont.

 

I heard it today in my car. Will fix when I have extra money.

 

thanks fsttyms1.. i appreciate it... i just got the car and have been stressin about some things.... im really petro about car issues... i like my car fully functional with no problems.. actually its 4 my wife and the kids. she sometimes drives 2 and a half hrs to go visit her family gotta make sure the car doesnt leave her and the kids...cant afford payments rite now. thanks again....

 

Kris is this the 'honda tick' I've been hearing?
