Hello I hope all is well, Can I ask what’s your opinion on a troubleshoot for a 2019 Kia sorento 3.3 AWD 102k miles. When I start it up it sounds like a tractor for a few seconds then mellows out. I’ve done research and found it may be the timing chain tensioner loosening up? Do you have any advice it’ll be greatly appreciated https://youtube.com/shorts/Ib-nAUkM1No?feature=shared

Well, it's generally one of two things either. The timing chain tensioner needs replacing or the variable valve timing assembly is rattling on top of the engine. So pray it's just a tensioner. Of course if the chain itself is worn it can do that too
