Default Timing Chain Tensioner noise? Help Please

Hi guys,

Just wondering if this noise is the TCT? Or anything worse? Just wondering where I need to start.



Thanks in advance.

TCT noise is very distinct. I can’t seem to hear it over that supercharger noise. So I would say No.

There is no specific TCT noise there.

Post another video:

-From full operating temperature, shut the car down and let is sit for 5 full minutes
-Position the camera 6 feet away from the nose of car and 6 feet off the ground
-hit record and get the starup video

It gets louder around the 40 second mark.

Too much background noise to be sure, but no tct noise there.

Any idea what it could be? Valves?

Valve adjustment is always the best starting point, for many good reasons.
