vwgti 0 Posted January 3, 2006 Hi Guys I am new to the forum and just pick up a VR6 radowith 49K on the clock, when I bought the car I new that it needed hydraulic lifters. Have got them changed and the noise is still there but not as loud, it not the normal VR6 lifter or chain noise from our experience? The mechanic is saying it could be a worn camshaft or the part that lock the cams are worn!! Any ideas where this sound is coming from? You guys might be saying why did I buy the car when there is the lifters noise, reason is there is only one VR rado with a manual box in Malaysia that we know off, the other 2 are automatic and another a G60 so its very rare. Also I have checked on the ETKA and see that the cams of the ABV engine is diferent from the AAA engines, if there is what is the difference. If we can't find a solution to the noise i might have to lift the cyclinder head from my spare AAAengine. thanks in advance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
