problem #1

Explorer XLT 4.0L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 124,000 miles

After starting the engine, there is a pronounced chain rattle sound emitting from the front right of the vehicle. It goes away after the engine reaches operating temperature. I had it taken to an independant mechanic and was told it was one of the timing chains becoming loose and on its way out. Vehicle has since been sold.
