Hello all just bought a 16 outlander 570 and have about 11 hours on it now. I changed all the fluids at 10 hours and have some questions. I have the typical clutch engagement clunk but was wondering about engine noise. I’d say about 3500-4000 rpms probably about half the time I get a ticking knocking noise in acceleration. Sounds like it coming from the right side of the engine. Is this normal? Could it just be older gas? I get my gas from our farm tank. Might be 3-4 months old. I do get kind of a thump from the clutch side at idle which I’m assuming is the belt flexing. Could the belt clutch noise just be resonating? Is this an item of concern? Thanks in advance!
