Hi all,

I have a LS3 with 2000km on the clock and have a squeaking noise from the drivers side upper cylinder bank. I first thought it maybe a pulley on the drive belt but it seems further back and on top of the block in vicinity of the coils and fuel rail. I have used silicone spray on pulley bearings to make sure it isn't a faulty bearing.

The noise dissipates after 10-15mins driving and is worst on start up.

I have a video I can send to anyone who maybe able to assist showing the noise and approx area it is coming from.

Your assistance would be appreciated.

don't the plastic roller lifter trays break and the hydraulic lifter roller turns on the cam giving a noise on start up for a while?

Hi Pete not sure. However the squeaking noise continues for a good 15 min after each start and only comes from the LHD/drivers side bank.

All I can suggest is to ask on a US based forum, there's heaps more LS3s running in the USA than Aus.
Attn camry drivers. The accelerator is the skinny pedal on the right.
