1983 Mercedes-Benz 380SEL 3.8L Timing Chain
Posted to European Engine on 7/2/1998

Customer brought car in after oil change with noise in front of engine. Sounds like timing chain slap. Removed drive belts to eliminate those and noise remains. It was hard to narrow down exact location with stethescope,it almost sounded like it was two noises...
