Hi gang

I have a 99 venture and the engine ticks loudly when it is cold out until it warms. Once it is warm it still has a faint tick. I have heard this is normal. Any input from you guys out there.

Thanks in advance

This is normal its piston slap, it will not do any damage at all. There is a bulletin for some years, techs were replacing the piston skirts with teflon coated ones.
