- 99 mountaineer
I have a 99 mountaineer with V6 that my sister gave to me 2 years ago. Its always had this rattle and i saw the threads on here about replacing the front tensioner. truck has about 110k miles on it and i have put about 20k on it with this annoying rattle. Just havent had time to fix it and i was thinking it was the easy fix of just doin the front but im not so sure if the sound is coming from the front or the rear. The other issue at hand here is that it does not have this loud ass rattle all the time. Sometimes also included in the video the sound will NOT be there AT ALL. It will be as quiet as a mercedes even if i rev the engine. How the heck is that possible? You would think that if there is slack in the chain, it would be rattling all the time. Your thoughts please. here is a video.
