Hi everyone I have a zafira 2.2 z22yh with 78k on the clock and the timing chain is noisy/rattling and it's doing my tits in getting worse everyday. When I first bought the car it hadn't been serviced for a long time so I had a full service asap had the engine flushed and oil treatment added to the new oil to try quieten it down a bit but that didn't help. I been told it could be the tensioner and to replace with z20net tensioner. does anyone know if this will sort the problem? Took it in to Vauxhall spares and he recommended doin both chains he said it has 2? But it's going to cost £500 just for parts really don't know what to do. As don't want to be spending that sort of money. Also heard something blocks up if the engine hasn't been regularly serviced causing the chain to rattle is there way of sorting this? any help much appreciated.
