    04 gtp comp g

    just this morning this issue started never heard this in its lifetime.

    at first i would hear it at idle but after 15 min of driving i would only hear it if i got on the peeal. Sound/clicking increased (got more frequent) with rpm and clicking got more rapid from what i think is in the engine bay.

    any thoughts what it could be i have no idea atm.

    I'd think pulley or belt. You'd need to look under the hood to diagnose it .
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Fire it up and use your mechanics stethescope to check the pulleys. Or put a couple drops of water on the belt while it's running. If the noise goes away..you know it's belt/pulley related.

    First thing I would check is the belt tensioner/pulley.
