#33 of 37 2005 MALIBU MAXX engine noise at certain RPM by 2005maxx May 03, 2009 (3:47 am)
My 2005 MALIBU MAXX is pretty quiet except an engine noise at around 1500 RPM. Could anybody give me any info about this problem? Replies to this message: pf_flyer (May 03, 2009 5:44 am) pao (May 04, 2009 3:16 am)

Replying to: 2005maxx (May 03, 2009 3:47 am) Is it valve noise? (check the oil level) Sort of a rattling like a loose heat shield? Try to be a bit more specific about the noise and maybe even when you hear it. Is it at 1500 RPM every time you're at 1500 rpm? Only under load, only when you're stopping and the engine is winding down?

Replying to: 2005maxx (May 03, 2009 3:47 am) the Maxx tends to have slight rough idle and ticking sound when the A/C compressor isnt running.....but at 1500 RPM....it shouldnt be idling that fast....as mentioned above...more info is needed on your noise???

Replying to: jeamoon (Apr 06, 2009 8:34 am) I'm currently experiencing the same issues with my 2004 Malibu Maxx. It has stalled out three times but both NTB and the dealership can't pull any codes on it. The dealership has had the car three days and it has worked fine the entire time. Argh!   Anyway....did changing the Ignition Lock Cylinder work?
#37 of 37 Check engine light on before ignition by desmondluo Jun 10, 2009 (9:16 pm)
my check engine light is on recently when I turn the key into stage 'II', which is the last stage before turning to ignition, after I turn the key and start the engine, the light will be off. The dealer told me this is normal. Really? Is this a big deal?
