hi there
my car has an almost machine gun like rattle when starting from cold. i thought it was the starter motor not disengaging properly so i had it reconditioned, but that didnt solve it.
i now think it might be timing chain rattling from low oil pressure in the chain tensioners. if this is the case, what do i have to do to the tensioners? recondition them or buy new ones?
any advice anyone?
Mike
