Cam sprocket rattling

Post by Bloala »

Finally got my 206 cc 2.0 2002 on the road :big-grin:
Been trying to find cause of metallic rattle coming from cambelt side of engine!
After removing belt cover, discovered a very loose wheel within exhaust cam sprocket!
Only held in place with magnet.
Anybody know what it's function is?
Do i need a new one, or is it normal!?
Any info gratefully accepted.
