MY ENGINE IS MAKING A RATTLING NOISE WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED. I WAS ORIGINALLY TOLD THE NOISE WAS PROBABLY MY EXHAUST SYSTEM BUT WAS LATER ON TOLD THAT I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 138,000 MILES ON IT AND MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN DONE ONLY AT DEALERSHIPS. THE RATTLING NOISE IS EITHER RODS THAT NEED TO BE REPACED OR A TIMING CHAIN.
