C63S Ticking Noise




But let's find out: Would be good to know if this timing CHAIN guides will need to be done later on in this car's life or as the mileage gets high? At least if I know it's a WEAR & TEAR item I can start saving now fml 🙄🙄🙄

thank you very much
Can you post a video with the hood OPEN to further confirm?








Because the telltale sign of the chain guide issue is it will be apparent during cold start but will disappear when warm.
The bad sound I'm talking about is in this video

You don't need to change them but if it annoys you, you can get them done. For me I've changed all my pulleys in the coupe twice and the belts but that noise comes back after a while. But that's definitely not your chain guides mate.
The timing chain guides sound, as you described is that distinctive, hollow, cricket sound of tek tek tek tek on cold start. That's the bad one.
Just to be clear so far on M177 noises:
⛔ Timing chain guides: Cricket sound tek tek tek tek that disappears after about 5 minutes after cold start (Bad, Urgent & Expensive)
✅ Injector sounds: Tick tick tick tick sound especially louder on right side of engine when standing in front of the hood (No issue & Normal)
✅ Belt and pulley: Squeaks which usually disappear after car is warned up (Fine & Not urgent)
how much roughly
