Engine noise question
My guess is this topic has been discussed before, but.... Do you all have a real short rattle/clatter noise right upon starting your engine?? Lasts for a fraction of a second at most. Usually right after starting or within the first second of starting. I believe its the timing chain just prior to oil pressure/tensioner pumping up.. I think I remember my 98 Max doing this once in a while but wanted to verify this was normal on the 04....
Thanks guys

Interesting that you mention this... Yes, I too have just recently noticed the split second rattle/clatter upon startup! Happens only occasionally, not every startup, and only when starting in the morning after the colder nights. Never noticed when weather was warmer. I too hope its normal!
