isamir2k Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hello My 2014 SE CVP DJ ( 2.4 l) is having a diesel sound like when very cold outside. This sound is present only when the car is in driving mode and not on neutral for example. I change from driving to neutral and accelerate but the sound is very different. Somebody encountered something like this or that is normal for this engine? Sorry fo my english, I'm not an english speaker... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most cold weather noises are related to the thick oil in the cylinders which contributes to less effective lubrication until the engine warms and the oil thins out. I would suggest plugging your vehicle in so the block heater can be keep things warmer over night, even throughout the day if possible. If this noise was present in all temperatures, I would suggest having your dealer look at it. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
