    Crankshaft Pully or Chain ?

    Had a rattle on mine, was the chain. Common on these cars. Mine was a bad rattle so got both the timing chain and the oil pump chain dine. Cost £800 all in. Read the thread I posted. Oil chain is the one that goes from what I'm lead to believe. Guys really helpful on here.

    It's an old mate doing it who owns his own garage. Says it's a four hour job approx. He used to work with me at the UK's biggest engine recon company so knows engines inside out if that makes sense.
