Just had to have the chain, tensioner & guides replaced on my 2005 Altima (3.5) at 111k, the whine was starting to sound like a jet engine.. Not cheap..

I had read the new parts they use in there now will not have the same problems. But here is the worst part and omg... The rental the dealer gave me to drive was a piece of junk Chevy Cruise, what could I say they didn't charge me for that. I can't believe people pay actual money for 4 cyl GM products.
It reminded me of the 76 Vega Jimmy Carter special my Mom used to have, I could swear the engine had not changed in all that time.
