I'm also interested. I have a 2011 5.0 supercharged that sounds just like yours. |

I have had on my former 5.0 SC the above problem with the timing chain - was expensive to repair. All my spelling errorz are belong to me!

Hi, thanks for your replies. XxxAngelxxx would you say it sounded quite different after the repair? Also how much did it cost and which garage did you have it done by? I haven’t been able to find much information on this work being done in the U.K. |

I’ve finally found a video of a Supercharged ‘normal’ engine startup/idle. The more I read about this the more I think what I’m hearing is normal direct injection engine noise. I’ve not owned a direct injection engines car before so expected the V8 to be super smooth and rumbly alas that doesn’t seem to be the case for these engines.

That's really useful as that is what mine sounds like. I'm just approaching 80k miles on mine and been reading about the timing chain issues ever since I bought the car and wondered. Shame there isn't any easy what to tell if your car has the fix or not.

Mine sounds just the same but I’m still concerned about the timing chain.. If you are not part of the solution you are part of the problem!! |
