Smile Thought a timing chain was going bad.

I just had my timing chain and rails replaced and started my car up and it sounded like the engine was eating the rail. Took it into the shop and they tore it down and noticed that everything looked good. Upon further examination the found a serpentine belt was shredding and hitting the base of the cover. After replacing the belt the car is running like new. I am so glad it wasn't the chain again.
