[QUOTE="cbower, post: 1052831, member: 78615"] Thanks for the reply. I did this and still hear the rattle. Like I said it’s strange because it’s only after the engine runs for a few minutes, it is not there on initial startup like a lot of other cases. It definitely sounds like a timing rattle, but is much much quieter than you hear on videos on YouTube. My local shop did not even notice it. Heat shields are also good. Could it be that after warming up the tensioners are worn out and cannot deliver proper oil pressure? [/QUOTE]
