A rattle from the timing chain area can mean this tensioner is worn, though a stretched timing chain or worn guides can make the same noise, so find the cause first. The chain, guides and sprockets are best replaced along with the tensioner during service. This listing is one tensioner for the left upper position, and the fitment calls for one per vehicle.
