Dear, the parts I just sold paid for that part ;)  Group: Members Posts: 1,568 Joined: 26-December 02 From: Williamsburg, VA Member No.: 16  |
I have a 2.2 that I recently did a top-end on. As you know I am new to the SIX's and am not familiar with their NORMAL sounds.
When I rev slowly the engine everything is fine but when I rev the engine fast and let off the throttle I can hear a tap/rap coming from the timing chain housing on the (123) side. when I put my hand on the housing I can also feel what sounds like the chain hitting the housing. It's not a very loud sound but it is there. Since I am now hyper sensitive to any sound I noticed it I found a sound file of a car with a failed timing chain tensioner and mine sounds nothing like that. It only happens coming off throttle If anyone is near West Chester or Philly and wants to help and hear my engine please e-mail me. Kerrys914@yahoo.com. Cheers |
