Im running a 2010 LR4 with 82k miles, purchased 10 months ago. The other day I noticed a sound that made me shiver. After doing plenty of research on timing chain issues, im afraid im the next to fall victim. I'm not currently reading any faults from my IIDTool. I've tried the oil filler cap tension test multiple times, from cold start, running a bit, and it still seems to be appropriately taught. (less than 1/8in movement with decent pressure). All that being said, the sound leads me to believe it has to be the timing chain. I'd thought I get a second or third opinion on the sound, as it seems pretty pronounced, but there may be an alternative cause I hadn't thought of.
Video of the engine sound:
Got two quotes from indy shops for a timing chain overhaul, 10k and 12k respectively, which is financially quite untenable. Encouraged by a few of you doing this yourself. Still weighing my options.
Any feedback appreciated!
