    2014 250 SHO ticking

    Just noticed a ticking/knocking during warm up. Once the motor was warm it went away. Motor ran fine but that has to begining of bad news, no?

    Could be many things..... the start of a gearcase failure, very loose valve, internal engine issue etc.

    How many hours on the motor? When was the engine oil and gear lube last changed?
