95 Mill, just replaced the water pump, starter and timing belt...127,000. Figured I would do that so I can make it to 200k. There is a noise behine the clock area, sounds like a clicking or sucking noise. Any ideas??? My best guess is it's something electric.
Thanks

fallguy: is it any type of liquid-sounding? like bubbling or gurgling? Does it happen mostly when it's cold outside or all the time?

Yes. It sounds like gurgling. It has gotten worse the past month or so.

Fallguy: where do you fill your coolant at? Sounds stupid but for the past 2 years I hadn't read the directions and just assumed I should fill it at the front tank. I finally filled it at the mid-left engine compartment fill near the manifold (where the manual says to fill it) and the gurgling sound is significantly less. I plan on topping it off tommorrow and hopefully it takes care of it!
Here's the kicker: Too bad I'm selling my 2.5L tommorrow afternoon.
PS: the fill cap looks full, then goes down. Fill very very slowly... a trickle.
