Has anyone experienced a noisy vtc gear? I am getting a ticking/clacking noise from the front of the engine and I have narrowed it down to the vtc gear. I'm able to turn off/on vtc with my standalone and with the vtc ON the noise goes away. Quite opposite of the normal vtc failures in other nissan engines. I've read in VG30's the vtc spring is the culprit but mine seemed okay to me (flying cover screws). Has anyone replaced the spring and resolved the problem?

thanks.

  It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

  I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.

  Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.

  People said the same thing when the R35 going into development was announced.
