changed the pcv valve rockers and rebleed lifters still have noise.

 

If it is the PVC making noise I don't know if changing the valve will make it stop. You will have to hook up a catch can to help keep it stable. As you hear it make noise you might be able to disconnect the hose to it and see if the noise stops to tell if it is your issue. Just an easy test if you haven't done it already.

 

so i'm not going to mess anything up by disconecting the pcv valve for a second

 

Nope at idle just for a quick test you should be fine.

 

it only rattles around 2k to 3k so i would need to rev it up and then unplugg it

 

Yep np.

 

how do you hook up a catch can to stabilize the pcv valve. i did a search on it and there are lots of catch cans, i did not know wich one to go with and the way i should hook it up. it seems the noise is going away when i unplug the valve but its hard to tell because of all the air coming being noisy. maybe there is a cheap way to make a temporary catch can to see if this is my problem.

 

bump

 

so did you get it solved, cause I have the same issue I think, I did not bleed the lifters yet, but would like to know how you solved it.

 

changed cams, lifters, springs and retainers, rockers and it still ticks around thay rpm range 2.5 to 3.5k. some times noise goes away but them it comes back.when i changed the springs it went away for 1000 miles but came back again.???

 

ticking came back i don't know what else to replace??? i'm so pissed do i need to just buy a new engine lol. i have an oil pressure gauge and it seems fine. 18 psi at idle and 65 on the freeway. temp is 95c.

 

Its normal bro, oh and i see that you have an RS like I do. No sound deadening sucks cause you hear everything a lot more. I kind of ignored it and continued with what im doing.....driving fast with a smile on my face

 

i'm going to try thicker oil 10w 40, and see what happens

 

bump for updats i have thie same problem and how can you tell if you already have no jam lifter??? i dont wanna wast my money

 

well i had this same sound and traced it to my bearing in the motor... donmt kno witch but ill let yall kno.
