Description of the problem | After a 2 hour highway drive i noticed the vehicle began running loud, a rattling noise coming from the engine as i was getting off the highway. After parking and shutting the vehicle down and letting it rest, i went to restart it. Again it was still loud but quickly shut itself off and would not start back up. Upon inspection, the timing chain went out causing, to quote the service manager, "catastrophic engine damage" that was well beyond able to be repaired. |
