other things you should know :
very easy for the timing chain to slip a tooth even with the set-up jigs.
you can disconnect power without removing the battery terminals ,..
on a brighter note i dont think there is anything wrong with your engine ,... sounds like it needs a re-flash and a good drive,.....

I agree with if it aint broke dont fix it, but , it was broke. His timing chain was rattling for 5 seconds when he started the car up. He is one of the lucky people who got a defective/badly designed part replaced under warranty.
