Hi,
Backstory … I have a jeep patriot which runs the 2.1 om651 engine … decided to give it a fresh oil and filter when I brought it (even though it had one 4k miles prior at a garage) .. I brought proper spec shell helix ultra 5w30 (£92) and I used a genuine Mercedes oil filter with new seals .. SINCE changing the oil and filter I seem to believe I can hear chain/tensioner rattle for a few seconds on startup .. but ironically .. it’s heard usually when the cars WARM??
Why would this have happened do you think? Shell helix ultra 5:30
And my second question is .. how do I access the tensioner if I need to replace it for a new one?
