Hi,
I have 2017 E-class 220d 2017. W213. OM654. 114,000 miles driven.
Rattling noise coming from the engine continuously after engine gets warmed up and then it continues through out the day but not on cold start. Does anyone any good mechanic for timing chain issues/replacement in Birmingham, Wolverhampton areas?
 
It normally rattles on start up doesn't it?

No. Only knocking sound for 2 to 3 seconds on cold start up in winter started from October month but rattling noise is continuous after 5, 10 minutes of drive and continues throughout the day.
 
Closest I know of would be Mercland Nuneaton, or MB automotive Loughborough. Sorry dont know any around the Birmingham area.

You sure its the chain though, the om654 is not know for chain issues but is known for this issue

I have been to few mechanics but they have been telling me it is timing chain issue but not ready to replace the chain as they said they never work on OM654 engine.
 
Its a cam and tappet issue. Its best to do the chain at the same time in some circumstances. The chain replacement needs some seriously expensive special tools to do it well. We have all the necessary equipment to do this and it seems like we are one of the few that does.

Thanks. Where is your garage and what would be the cost?
 
I had mine replaced on my OM651 by Andy Gail in Birmingham.
How much they charged you for OM651? I have been to Andy Gail personally and they said they will call me after getting the parts prices but never call me back. I believe they never worked on OM654.

I am sure they have.

It was around £850 including fresh oil and filter. That was for chain and tensioner.
