What are the symptoms of a damaged Jaguar timing chain?

When you are out on the road driving your Jaguar vehicle, you may well notice symptoms of a damaged timing chain. Let’s look at a few listed below:

• Are you hearing large banging noise’s coming from under the bonnet of the vehicle? This is a classic symptom.

• Are you hearing a rattling noise coming from the engine, this is caused because you have a loose timing chain, and it can cause the engine to bang against other engine components.

• Is the engine management light visible on your dashboard. This being the most obvious symptom.

• Is your vehicle stalling when you try and start it, or when you are stationary at traffic lights. This can be a sign that the timing chain has caused damage to the engine because it is loose.

All of these above symptoms are timing chain issues. If you are experiencing these things, then it is advisable to get the engine inspected. Not getting the engine checked could result in even worse problems. A loose timing chain can damage other engine components that can lead to even higher costs to repair, or even in some cases, an entire engine rebuild or replacement engine will need to be carried out.
