Some Nissan TITAN XD owners report experiencing a ticking noise in the engine, which may be caused by low oil levels, ignition system problems, or exhaust leaks. Additionally, these owners note issues with rough idling and high idle speeds, prompting the need to check for OBD II codes and visually inspect components like spark plugs and vacuum hoses. If these symptoms persist, some owners face the risk of severe engine damage that could necessitate engine replacement, potentially due to problems with the drive belt idler pulley or internal engine components. To mitigate these issues, regular maintenance, including oil level checks and prompt attention to ignition system concerns, is essential. Furthermore, owners experiencing ongoing problems are advised to seek professional assessment from a qualified mechanic or dealership to accurately diagnose and resolve the underlying issues.
