As calidus said it is more likely to be the timing chain that is rattling.Does it only do it at startup or all the time?.If it does it all the time then the chain will need replacing.I had an oil leak on my 12v a few weeks back, and it looked like it was coming from the timing cover gasket.So got the job priced up at vaux and they wanted £340 to change the timing gasket as its a big job and £440 if the chain needed changing!:!.Luckily for me it was the oil pressure switch that was leaking.:D | |

do they use a cam chain like the 1200 16vs? as they rattle from them a bit i think | |
