[QUOTE="DOWNS, post: 439579, member: 21038"] Read his post man. He specifically mentions "Chain" multiple times in his post. So which one do you think he's talking about? OP, the timing chain is a somewhat involved job, but not hard. You can save yourself some headache on the I6s by removing the radiator and grille. You'll want to replace the tensioner while you are in there, as that is what takes up that slack in the chain as it wears. There are some special tools needed but you can rent them from your local FLAPS (Friendly Local Auto Parts Store) or buy from Amazon and put them in your tool pile. There are lots of videos on You Tube on how to do it and if you have at least a decent amount of automotive knowledge you will be good to go. [/QUOTE]
