VVT Rattle

[boost-addict]

I didn't know that... I was told before that it was a massive job and considering the cost/time it would take I would nearly have been better swapping out my blacktop VVT for a black/redtop non-VVT

Sweet, I'll have to find a 'how to' guide !

How much for the sprocket Bradley_Motorworks ?

An hour man.

Simple job. they are expensive new but plenty about worth chancing.

Nice one It's been wrecking my head for months now ! I should of looked into it more but was put off at the start when I was told it was one of the hardest/most irritating jobs to do on a SR... ....

Can anyone help out/advise on this...

Going by the last few comments I'm now looking for a replacement sprocket.. ill also happily pay someone to do the job (any suggestions?) as i can't find a how to guide anywhere... I'd usually have no problem trying something first but i don't have a clue where to even start with this...

Thanks.

my n/a s15 rattels, but only sometimes, if i drive it, turn it off, and start again it rattles mad,
i put foot on clutch and in gear, still rattels, i reversed it back revving it up a bit and it stopped,

from reading old threads is it the vvt thing i need to replace to shut it up?

Ya be fairly sure its vvt.

how much would a second hand one be?

its like 50/50 if u put a used on in, couple of thousand miles down the rd it might start makin the noise too , if u are changin it get a new one id say but be prepared to pay 200-300ish euro for it, and thats with you gettin it abroad
