  • We have seen a couple of single link timing chains on A12's before. Wierd. Insist on the factory specified double-chain
  • A rattle can be the trait of a stretched timing chain. Pinging/pinking has also often been mistaken for timing chain rattle


A-series engine has a short timing chain -- and with an automatic adjuster -- it rarely stretches or goes bad.

Compare to the loooooong chaing used in the Nissan KA24E engine:
