Weird Noise.. told its chains but im not convinced !?


Recommended Posts

I took my car to my mates garage today, and when on idle the car is normal - a slight bearing noise but thats it but when you rev it it goes louder, sounds exactly like when my water pump was playing up on my type R...

now whats wierd its on the right hand side of the engine?

Now would the chains make a bearing noise or a distinctive rattle?

Also is it an engine out jobby to do the chains? and is it normal for the water pump needing to be done after 100k ?

If the chains are noisy does this mean they are going to snap ?

thanks

Now do you mean right side of engine as you look at it from the front of car?

If so then that is the chain side. The chains rarely snap but have been known too.

The engine doesnt have to come out to do them , it just makes it easier if you do. Gaerbox has to come off regardless tho
