So two days ago, I got an oil change for my lexus is300. It's been a LOOOONG time since the last time i changed my oil, which was probably a year ago. Not only that, I drive a lot so I racked up 15k miles before changing the oil (Yeah never doing that again..)
BUt here's the problem: After I got the oil change, my car started to sounds different; there is a ticking noise coming from the oil filter area, and you only hear this when the car is in P or Neutral, or just idling. And when i drive it, if you rev it slowly, you can hear like a swishing noise. It's hard to describe but my car never sounded like this before.
My friends say its because I haven't changed my oil for so long that the oil began to form clunks?
Any suggestions as to why it's like this? Much help is appreciated! Thanks!
