2014 Honda CRV EXL (K4 engine) 70k miles. No codes.
as you know this vehicle is included with the Honda 2.4 VTC actuator rattle on cold startup.
Two years ago, I replaced the actuator. Upon inspection, chain was stretched. Replaced chain. Everything was good. Less than a year later, rattle began. Part was my fault, I didn’t use OEM part for actuator. so, I went and tried stretching the pin spring inside. That lasted only a week or so.
my question is: should I harass Honda for the OEM part that they put on the 2015 and 2016 models that doesn’t rattle, or buy the stiffer spring that can be found on amazon?
thanks, Scotty!
