theres this weird ass clicking noise coming from my engine, so we had the timing chain replaced and it stopped for a while, then it came back.

brought it to the dealer and they wanted to check the timing chain, but i didnt feel like paying $300 just to see if that was the problem. so i didnt anything fixed, but they said it might be a rod bearing h:

so looks like its a new car for keith :thumbup:
