My 1995 9000 Aero is making some knocking noise. At first i thought it was my custom cat-free exhaust ratteling. It rattels at low rpm and when i shift or speed up the sound goes way and comes back again later. so mostly at low rpm i hear a lound rattle.. i opened my hood to find out that the rattle isnt the exhaust but its coming from the cylinder head. the sound seems to be coming from the timing chain side of the head. my guess someting in the engine timeing chain area is ratteling. in a few days i will remove the valve cover to see what i can see. not sure what i could be looking for besides slack in the chain. if you have any ideas please let me know. Any other saab enthusiasts in Orange County, CA.
