Title: 3.2 JTS Timing Chain Issue?
Post by: torquemeister on November 13, 2020, 02:32:37 PM
Guys I think I need to replace the timing chain on my 87000km 2007 Brera. At startup get a rattling sound - usually disappears after a bit but occasionally still  noisy after a 50km run on the highway.

Ive got a replacement chain kit - any suggestions as to a good WS to do the repair? Im in Northern Tasmania but if necessary would bring Bella across to Melbourne for this job. She doesnt use a drop of oil (Selenia) and is still clean between servicing by the way.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Do you get any errors on the dash or warning lights of any sort?
