Oh no!!

My car went in for its 72k service today. Amongst my usual requests and walk around the car with George , I asked him to listen to my 'funny engine rattle upon starting when warm' problem. Horror on his face, and he thinks it is the Timing Chain tensioners? (is that right?)

Might need it to be in for longer than today for the work. I told him i need it back for Thursday to get up to Arran so can he look at it and fix it as fast as possible.

If he can't do it in time, then he advises against driving the car as it will invalidate the warranty work needed to fix it if the car goes wrong!

So now i am on tenderhooks hoping i get the car back in time, otherwise it looks like Arran is off for me

I HOPE that he can fix it in time.

Anyone had this problem before and can give me some details on their experience.
Under warranty if its UK car & less than 3 years old, YES

No if from Europe or anywhere else.....

You see the 90,000 mile warranty does make sense....

I realised after I posted it, still the comments stand, wonder how much all that work / parts would have cost then?

Might have easily negated the savings made???????????
