lol...Yeah mechs told me the same thing as well that it is a common issue for these maximas. I've heard them on others as well so I guess I'm gonna stick with it because I dont feel like dishing out so much money to get it fixed. I'll just turn the system up =)

I heard if it was a timing chain rattle that it would a constant rattle whereas our rattle only occurs in the 1500 rpm to 2000 rpm range.
