Engine Makign wierd noise

Well the area right where the ITD would b the left sideo f the engine seems to be making a clicking noise as if you were taking a rod and hitting it across the metals i thought it was the ITD but it cant b becuase there is no vibration on the brackets so does any one kno wat it could b?
Timing belt ?

Sounds like the timing tensioner bracket. Had mine done under warranty last year.

good luck.

i think its normal... I work at a dealership and all the manual saabs do the same thing, does it stop after the car warms up or after driving?

Our new Hyundais here at the dealership are having the same problems with the timing chain tensioners. Make sure you get that taken care of under warranty.
