, HTG has it...yea ive read about sandblasting the worm gear but what kind of place does that? an auto shop? plus, is putting it back together easy or would i have to have something to compress it back together?
so i guess the worn guide is ruled out?

That has got to be the TCT. You can really picture that at lower rpms the timing chain is going a bit slower and the slack is allowing it to slap back and forth. As the rpms speeds up physics takes over and intertia pulls it outward reducing the slaping of the timing chain. I personally would not drive it like that, but my S is not my daily driver.

thanks everybody. i guess ill let her sit til i get enough for a new TCT. but my first TCT sounded nowhere close to being that loud, reason why i thought it could be something else
and thanks Bill, ive been waiting for you i PM'd you a while back when it started but never got an answer. its alright though
so well my question as earlier, is it easy to put the pin back into the TCT if i were to take it apart to get the 'worm gear' sandblasted?
