I recently heard a strange sound from my engine which seemed to be louder when the a/c compressor was running. Took my 02 with 70,000 miles into my dealer and found that the timing chain was loosening. They replaced the chain under warranty but I'm now concerned about the future of my vehicle. My 94 900 died due to the timing belt popping off so I'm worried about my 9-3. Anyone else deal with the chain replacement? What was your experience? Any advice on what you'd do as I was hoping to have this car for quite sometime. Thanks in advance!!
