THIS IS A LINK TO WHAT HAPPENS PLEASE HEP EVEN GIVE ME AN IDEA OF WHAT YOU SUSPECT IT IS THANKS

Link isn't working

This is the new link

That does not sound good

It certainly sound like it coming from the motor, maybe from the timing chain tensioner(?)

When hear how the chain tensioner snaps back in this alloytec (LY7) when being turned by hand, sounds similar to yours (though not a loud nor as frequent)
YouTube - ‪LY7 (cadillac CTS) timing problems‬‏

Hard to diagnose online so I may very well be wrong

Please keep us posted regardless

Kindest Regards,

i was told that the timing chains were gone by holden but im goning to get it diagnosed by holden maybe next week but thankyou for your help mate.

[MACE]

It would definitely be around that region for sure. Happy to help

Cheers,
Steve

ddi you find out what that noise was?

[MACE]

Sadly I'm tipping it was timing chain related

We've been looking at sourcing stronger replacement chains to suit. Exactly when, who knows

Im guessing they wouldnt be as cheap as the tunes you have tho?

[MACE]

They may have a mail order option not sure though. In saying this though we should have a mail order solution for these engines very soon

The price for them will be around the $550 mark

If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Hey,

Invest in some CAI Manifold insulator's from Mace
COLD AIR INTAKE MANIFOLD INSULATOR ALLOYTEC VZ-VE & VE 3.6L SIDI - Mace Engineering Group

And maybe a tune after that, I have an Omega with a Tune,Exhaust and the Insulators goes a lot better than standard.

How much was the tune for yours if you dont mind me asking?

Not a worry Matt_27,

Bare in mind with mail order tunes it does take longer to sort out given the shuttling of computers back and forth. Nonetheless though, it's available
