I posted this at the end of the Automotive Diagnostic Tool thread, but maybe it's not getting seen...
I've talked about it a bunch, but brief recap:
It seems like it might be the timing belt tensioner (again, after a couple years), but I'm not 100% sure.
If I drive it, it smooths out to sort of a flutter fairly quickly (and doesn't go back to that sound in the video).
Doesn't always sound that bad when it starts (just the flutter). But sometimes I can hear that clatter as soon as I start cranking.
I like this car and don't want to ruin it. If I knew what this was, I'd be further along than I am now.
