I acknowledge a clicking engine noise Infiniti Q60
In case you recognise a clicking engine noise on your Infiniti Q60, and that this noise is close to a click, you will have to find the origin place of it to be able to know the cause of it. You will need a mechanical stethoscope or a large screwdriver to locate the original area of these noises.
I acknowledge a clicking noise coming from my high engine
If you acknowledge an engine noise on Infiniti Q60, and this noise is based at the top of the engine, it means that it is based at your cylinder head and accompanying components. Two components can be the causes of these engine noises on Infiniti Q60. Either the hydraulic pushers, generally it is because of their faulty “hydraulic catch-up” system that we will acknowledge these clicking noises, often when cold and disappears when hot. Otherwise, it is your the play of your rocker arms or their state of wear that is the concern. In such a case, consider changing them.
I acknowledge a noise coming from the bottom engine of my Infiniti Q60
If you have determined the location of origin of engine noise on Infiniti Q60 that comes from your low engine, it may be that your rods or piston shafts are the causes. In both situations, the long-term risk is engine failure. These two repairs are very difficult and most technicians will advise you to change the motor of your Infiniti Q60.
I acknowledge an engine clicking noise on Infiniti Q60 coming from combustion
Finally, if you have the feeling that this clicking noise is linked to the combustion of your engine, there are three plausible causes of it. Check the condition of your glow plugs which if worn can hinder the proper combustion of the fuel mixture. Then, your timing belt may be shifted and may poorly control the timing of the various engine parts to promote good combustion. And finally, the most classic cause, comes from your injection, which is either blocked or one or more injectors is damaged. In this case, do not be reluctant to read this content which deals in detail with the different injector noises on Infiniti Q60.
Hissing noise / engine friction Infiniti Q60
Engine noise Infiniti Q60 close to a bearing
If it is close to a squeaking noise you may have one of the bearings of your engine accessory parts that are reached. So check the condition and try to find the exact origins of this noise by positioning someone at the engine at idle, and if this noise is more likely to happen in high rpm, accelerate and position someone at the engine block to discern the area of origin of the noise. The three components whose bearings are often at the origin of these noises are the water pump, the injection pump and the oil pump.

Engine noise Infiniti Q60 close to a friction
In the case that you acknowledge a motor noise on your Infiniti Q60, and, that this noise is close to a friction, it is likely that one of your belts or one of the parts that causes it is the origin of your issues.Often, we will start to acknowledge a motor noise on Infiniti Q60, close to a friction when one of the belts is worn out or when one of the related parts like your alternator, or your tensioner roller is the problem. So think about to check their condition and go to your technician to swap the components in question. If you have been able to target the noise as coming from the belts and you want more information about it, inspect this content on belt noise on Infiniti Q60 for a complete guide.
Metal motor noise Infiniti Q60
In the case that you acknowledge an engine noise on Infiniti Q60 and this noise is close to metal noise, it is plausible that this noise comes from your gearbox or clutch. In fact, a metallic noise in the engine block is often connected with damaged sprockets. Try to check that this noise comes from the transmission, if this is the case, fairly quickly go to your auto technician or you would get a break down. Finally, the second possibility is that your silent engine blocks or rubber mounts may be dead. This causes a metallic noise every time your engine moves, either because of a change of pace (acceleration or braking) or, when you pass on roads in poor condition. Check the condition of your silentblocks and swap them if required.
