Strange noise (video inside) on cold start after oil change. Plz Help!
Hi forum,
I am new to owning a Hyundai car. I have a 2011 Hyundai Elantra Limited with about 66700 miles on it. A week ago I had the engine oil and oil filter changed. I immediately started noticing a noise when I start the engine in the morning when the motor is cold. This only happens when the engine is cold. I am not sure what to make of this - if I am damaging my engine ! I took the car back to the mechanic and he looked at the oil level, which he said was okay and there are no oil leaks. Oil: 4.2 Q of synthetic 5W-20. I have recorded the noise: Any ideas whats happening ? Thank you ! |
It sounds like the starter lever is not pulling back fast enough.
Do you have any oil leaks in the area of the starter? |

Sorry, this is only a guess
I really can't tell much from the video |
The sound has started to go - it only happens occasionally.
