Engine question on a 2008 pontiac torrent?
I bought a 2008 torrent with 10000 miles on it . It came with a 3.4-liter V6 in it . the engine make a ticking noise when running I took it to a dealer and they said the ticking noise is normal for that engine. does anybody know about this problem or is the dealer just telling me what i want to hear?

Of course the dealer is going to say anything you want to hear. It's under warranty and THEY DON"T WANT TO PAY FOR IT THEMSELVES. If it bothers you make them fix it. If it is lifter tap after 10,000 miles (shivers with fear) I can only wonder if the car is going to make it to 50,000 miles before it...

There isn't one. The flasher duties are performed by the BCM.

Whatever you do, don't buy either one of them. They are pieces of cr*p. My neighbor has a Equinox and it soundsl ike a sewing machine. Check out the new Ford Edge. Those things are hot! Reference:http://www.fordvehicles.com/crossovers/edge/

As outfitted, the Torrent GXP will handily run circles around a Hyundai Santa Fe, Mitsubishi Outlander, Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, or 2009 Dodge Journey.

None of those competitors even offer performance packages.

The 2008 Pontiac Torrent also delivers a far more credible facsimile of sporty handling than the typical truck-based SUV (or even car-based crossover), but its Chevrolet Equinox donor chassis can't keep pace with the Opel that underpins the new Saturn Vue and Vue Red Line performance edition.

In the 2008 Pontiac Torrent GXP, though you're not going to out-corner sportscars, you will be piloting something a lot more agile than the typical lumbering SUV--something that's happy to tackle corners at speeds that would make most of its more SUV-looking crossover competition seriously unhappy.
