Do you mean the actual cylindrical unit on the front of the cam? Had no idea they could stick.
Yes the hub. M1TCH is having the same issue at the moment. I was round his yesterday. If you have INPA you can see how the vanos inlet and exhaust are sitting. He has intake at -115 degrees.
OK, Just been out to start it and check live data.j3nks79 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 25, 2024 11:11 amYes the hub. M1TCH is having the same issue at the moment. I was round his yesterday. If you have INPA you can see how the vanos inlet and exhaust are sitting. He has intake at -115 degrees.
You have a max variance of - or + 10 degrees for it to be within spec.
He spoke to Matt at ETA this morning and it basically needs re timing.
This sounds promising!j3nks79 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 25, 2024 12:08 pm Same symptoms that we had at the weekend.
I think once the hubs are cleaned and timing re set you shouldn’t have any other issues.
It’s hard to say if it will happen again. You’ve clean all the solenoids and check valves. Oil flush and then oil and filter change and it should be good.
Do able at home with the correct timing info and tools.
