At some point you will have to replace the pads anyway because they are falling apart. If you want to get an idea about how long it will last you can inspect them with a borescope if you have one.

Since the sound is more pronounced when (or maybe even not present until) the vario cam actuators activate, perhaps unhooking them as Homeoboxster suggests would add a clue if the noise goes away? (the additional tension of actuation is required to cause it)
Coming full circle to what I know I have to deal with anyway could it be that part of the pad broke away and the noise is the chain hitting/rubbing part of the metal support as it is actuated and the angle changes, but when it is not actuated it is riding on what is left of the pad? |
