I can hear the rattle at all RPM's with the hood open. More so when it is cold, but I can hear it with some good rev's even after it is warmed up. I have noticed some weirdness in the power lately and almost felt a power loss the other day including the beginning of a somewhat rough/roller coaster idle when cold. Timing off maybe? Definitely ruled out the valves, sounds so much like a chain rattling. Since I started my research, I can now clue in on the chain rattle/chatter sound for sure. The car doesn't burn not even an ounce of oil or make any other engine noise. Strong strong strong motor, but this is dissapointing. This has been getting progressivly worse over a 2 month period, always thought it was an alternator bearing or something minor, but performance has been reduced. It's off the road right now to avoid any potential motor seizures from the timing chain. Weird at 79K though?
