Hey guys, I'm trying to buy an 06' Speed from a used car lot at a Chevy dealership. It's got 30,500 miles and a clean carfax.

When I pop the hood there is a decent amount of vibration, the air box has a light shake to it. (possibly a bad motor mount?) Also there is a slight, but constant tick that sounds like it's coming from under the intercooler. Is this a common noise or something I should be concerned/ end the deal over?

They had their techs check out the tick over the weekend and said that "it's just how Mazdas sound."

Thanks for any input!
 
the car could already have upgraded motor mounts which make it vibrate a bit more. and the ticking sound is normal, it is the injectors.
