Replying to: tjok (Sep 26, 2009 4:49 am) I have 2 of those vans in my fleet. They both have a timing chain rattle which is common and have had this noise for 2 years. It hasn't changed or gotten worse since then. Just my 2 cents worth...and I own a shop. www.goldenruleauto.com

Replying to: tjok (Sep 26, 2009 4:49 am) If, as goldrench says, your hearing the timing chain rattle, then yes there is a very subtle rattle from the chain, and that rattle is something that a timing belt style of engine like the 3.0 cannot make. So take your choice, a chain that makes a little noise and lasts for the life of the engine, or a belt that needs to constantly be changed. I'll take the chain.

Replying to: shipo (Sep 26, 2009 10:04 am) What transmission does the 3.0 liter have, 3 or 4 speed automatic? Replies to this message: shipo (Sep 27, 2009 11:03 am)

Replying to: jpf (Sep 27, 2009 9:26 am) As with too many other things, it depends. Some 3.0 liter vans had the 3-Speed, some had the 4-Speed. While I've never been in a 3-Speed van, I believe I've heard that the display for the gear selector is a bit different. For the 4-Speed vans, they have three forward gear selections that go like this: D, 3, L, and obviously if a van has a 3-Speed transmission, that display wouldn't make any sense.   Best regards, Shipo

Replying to: lanpher (Oct 27, 2009 6:09 pm) Yes, the 3.3 and 3.8 liter twins both have timing chains that are typically good for the life of the engine.

Replying to: goldrench (Aug 18, 2007 3:29 am) I have 2000 3.3 Caravan with rattle noise in engine compartment, after i replace belt tension, valve lifters, timming chain and finally the fly wheel crack that make the noise. So I suggest you might want to replace the fly wheel, i know it a big decision to make.

Replying to: tjok (Sep 25, 2009 5:04 pm) It the fly wheel crack, replace it and you will not regret.
