2007 NISSAN NAVARA D40 4.0 Petrol V6

Problem- Heavy ticking noise from timing belt area that comes and goes.

For the passed 6 months i have had a noise that would sound exactly like a timing belt problem coming exactly from the timing belt area. I have had the timing belt replaced twice which does seem to hide the problem for a few weeks. whether the mechanic has greased up that area while changing the belt has put a temporarily mask on the noise or if its something mechanical that is causing to damage the belt to give the ticking noise...

Either way shouldn't expect a mechanical problem especially replace the timing belt twice on a car with under 60,000km.

Any Suggestions would be appreciated,

Mitch
