SR20DET Definitive Timing Chain Rattle Fix Thread.... No KA's!...No Noobs
I know, I know, we have all herd it a million times, but this time we are looking for a clear definitive answer for the timing chain rattle on an SR20DET. Damm Nissans and their noisy timing chain guides. Anyway, here is my question for Zilvia.
Through a good amount of searching i have come up with a few answers for the timing chain rattle on an SR, many of which involve replacing the tensioner and sometimes even the complete chain. Which can be a very time consuming and costly job. even more disappointing is the fact that many SR owners who have replaced timing chain/tensioner report that it did not completely fix their rattling problem.
Most of us with KA24 experience know that fixing the same rattle on that motor is as simple as removing the top and side timing chain guides, but will the same process work on an SR? Is it safe? In my search for this question i came up with a lot of useless answers and mixed results.
In this thread we are not looking for your opinions, we are looking for first hand experience with this problem, what has been done to fix it, and most importantly, has it worked.
