Thx for the post replies guys. I have done a little bit of research on here and have also narrowed it down to the cam chain tensioner, but I wouldn't know why it would be faulty on brand new sv, and wonder if it was the cause of the wreck wouldn't the valves have thrashed through the pistons?.. I also realize that the valves are bigger and therefore louder then on I4s, but the rattling comes only in gear while accelerating..
