What did Stevie say? I'm assuming you've asked him?Update : had chain, tensioner and guides

I got my chain and tensioner replaced at TI Motorsport ( Tegiwa ) which included valve clearance for £340 all in. I’ve been there for work twice now, can’t fault them, great job done, professional and recommended to any one.
Hi mate I was wondering did this job include changing the guides as well or were those ok as my specialist has advised me to change them with chain and tensioner and then getting the valve clearances done for 440 all in.
Hi mate, no this did not include the guides as there was nothing wrong with them. In all fairness there was nothing wrong with my chain or tensioner, I just got it done for piece of mind as I am approaching 100k
Cheers
Seems like I need to start thinking bout changing the chain and tensioner as the car is coming near 100k miles.Rattles from the cam top on startup have been VTC gear previously. There are a few threads on here.
Could still be the tensioner a low oil pressure at startup and subsequent chain slap however.
