URGENT Deep rattle, tapping on pulley side of engine
I have just heard the above on my 1999 3.0 (UK Model) Maxima 80,000 miles
It is intermittent on idling, also occurs when engine bliipped to about 3000 rpm , the sound appeares when coming back down to idle
Any iseas what it might be ?
Big end bearings, timing chain, loose pulleys ??
Does it sound expensive
Thanks for any ideas
