Oh Heck Yes! Time to drop that under the hood of my W110. M
So how do they maintain pressure, when there is no oil pressure?

If the tensioner is the same as the inline 4 and 6 petrol motors, then
there is a spring and ratchet mechanism in there which would not be
affected by oil pressure.
Timing chain rattle is a different sound to the ticking produced by
lifters and such. Old oil will make the ticking louder and long
From memory those small V8's had some problems with camshaft wear,
which resulted in a ticking noise.
Do these have solid or hydraulic lifters? Hydraulic lifters have been
known to tick until the oil pressure builds up in them.
I don't know that you can measure timing chain stretch in the petrol
Not even as a Euro?

Hi Loren -
Changing the TC tensioner is easy as Kaleb suggested but that doesn't
address a possibly worn chain, guide/rail that may be badly worn. They
should be inspected IMO.
