Never heard of a grinding timing chain. Maybe your starter is dragging. Get your starter rebuilt. Check your battery voltage and alternator amp output. Check all connections at battery starter and solenoid.
Plug your car in when its cold!

That problem does exist in older Nissan Pick-Ups. Some Used Car books mention this as an annoying but otherwise not troublesome rattle of a chain that has been manufactured too large for years. So the grinding noise can only be fixed with a revised model of timing chains for a lot of $$. Apparently, the noise stems from the movement of the chain itself and not its banging against any housing. After all, it sits in oil, so I just replace the oil more frequently.
What else can I help you with?
What do you do if a 95 Nissan maxima starts to make noise in the timing chain?
Stop driving it because if the chain goes you will ruin the engine. Get it fixed.

timing chain making a noise?
What could be causing the grinding noise coming from my bike?
The grinding noise from your bike could be caused by issues with the chain, gears, or bearings. It is important to inspect and possibly replace these components to resolve the noise.
Car is making a funny noise its sounds like a chain noise?
Sounds like a loose timing chain.
Does a 1996 Cavalier 2.2L 4-cylinder have a timing belt or is it a chain?
chain. if you hear a clattering noise the timing chain and timing chain tensioner need to be replaced they are usually sold as a kit
Does the Nissan Sentra 2004 have a timing chain or a timing belt?
For longer life with less maintenance, the Sentra engine uses a timing chain instead of a cheaper, but quieter, timing belt. You don't notice the extra noise generated by the timing chain.

How often should you change the timing chain on a 2002 Chevy Tracker 2.0?
A timing chain is something that will normally last until the engine needs an overhaul. It is starts making a noise, or you cannot keep the engine timed, it may need replacing. Otherwise it is not an item you replace at a set interval.A timing chain is something that will normally last until the engine needs an overhaul.

Why pulsar timing chain noise?
Pulsar timing chain noise refers to the irregularities in the timing mechanism of a pulsar, often caused by variations in the mechanical components of the timing chain system. This noise can arise from factors like wear and tear, misalignment, or insufficient lubrication, leading to fluctuations in the pulsar's timing accuracy. Such noise can affect the precision of measurements in astrophysical observations, making it crucial for scientists to account for these discrepancies in their data analysis. Understanding and mitigating this noise is essential for improving the reliability of pulsar-based timing systems.
How do i repair 1997 ford explorer Timing chain noise?
It might not be the timing chain, check if the exhaust muffler has not come adrift.
Timing chain noise?
Timing chain noise is most commonly coming from a loose chain. The tensioner could be loose or broken or the chain could be stretched. If the chain slips or breaks before you fix it, then not only will the engine stop running but you could cause serious damage.
Does 2004 Toyota Camry 4 cylinder sedan have a timing chain or belt?
