Hey all,

My gf just picked up a 97' vti-r prelude with 130k on the clock and I noticed a ticking noise in the engine. I have greased up the belts etc so I am presuming that the noise is internal. Would this noise be due to a lack of oil getting to the top of the engine or something else? What oil do you guys tend to use in your 5th gens? I'm up in brissie so there are not too many cold starts.

I have a accord euro, and so far have been pretty impressed by the build quality of the prelude. very very solid.

Is the ticking noise after you turn it off?
