I to have a 2014 CRV, 75K miles, making a VTC actuator racket on cold start. Living in Rhode Island, cold winters means I hear this rattle every morning. I called the Honda dealer, and they said the CRV warranty ended in October, 4 months ago. Dealer quoted me $800 for the VTC repair. As the previous post asked, will not having the VTC actuator replaced cause any long term engine damage? I've read that there is a redesigned VTC part Actuator, Vtc (46T) - Honda (14310-R5A-305), but it does not solve the VTC problem. What should I do? I'm not sure how much longer I can take it!!!
Are you still suffering from this issue? I apologise your question was just noticed. In future, please post a new question to get maximum help. Thanks.
Well heck go to discount Auto parts store by the part and change yourself they just pulled in and out it's not rocket science
