Whats going on guys. I have a dual cam in this coupe and im having what I think is a slight rattle noise that is coming from what I think is the bottom end. I had a couple noises up top and pulled the guides there and they went away so im trying to be sure this is more along the lines of a worn out guide or chain and not a bearing.

I've tried to get the noise to get louder and I cannot. It only happens when the motor is on a slight load up to about 2.5k rpm then it goes away completely. I also have to be intently listening for it to hear it because is it that quiet. Opinions?

i do the screw driver trick, u take the screw drive to the vc and then the other end to your ear. idk about the sound source but i dont have the two upper guards and new chain and i still get a slight sound on the vc
