Bottom end usually presents itself at around 3-4000, never seen it below that.

Sounds like my N/a, and like the shims need to be redone.

Is there a way to tell if it's a big end bearing rattle before I pull off the sump ?

If you are concerned about the condition of your bearings you could always get a used oil analysis done, it can be difficult do get an idea from a single sample but I do have some 3SGTE trend data.

Hi everyone , sorry for the month long wait on my reply lol
Turns out it was the timing belt tensioner , the belt was really loose and was slapping around the timing case

Lol I was right. That's good news for you. I found out the hard why, after trying other things first and no one new here on the forum. But the good thing of been on the forum is you learn things and someone else will benefit from it.
