Chains rattling 2006 Avalon on cold start up

Hi Scotty,

I have a 2006 Toyota Avalon with 3.5 that I've been driving for over a year with 285k (paid $400).  Best car I have ever owned.  I have noticed in the morning on cold start I can hear the chains rattle for a second or two, before it stops.  Is there any additive or suggestions you may have to keep this engine running to 400k?  I would rather not replace the timing chains. 

Thank you!!!! 

Jason

No.  The chains, tensioner and guides need replacing.
