208 220 CDI Owners.

I have noticed a light rattle in the top front of engine at start up. It sounds to be the cam chain & top sprocket . It quietens down when the engine is warm.

Has any one else noticed this noise?

The car has another 3 months of warranty & has done 35,000 easy Km.

No need to chip an engine with 400 Nm of torque . I have just renewed the rear tyres after only 35,000 km !.

I wonder why Europeans do not visit this site ?!

I think you may get more diesel answers in this, or a similar UK forum
