I have the same issue with the noise on startup, I replaced with updated tensioner and check valve for the right side. The issue still the same, no improvement..... I turn the engine and found one of the Sprocket solenoid on the intake side is spiting out oil. At this point I don't know what I need to replace. I don't even know how to determine if the chain is no good or not. Or even the sprocket, Anyone can help me? or share some experience?
The whole thing started with engine misfire cylinder 1 (P0301) and now engine shakes at low speed and when you press the gas.
