There is a strange noise appearing to come from the Vanos area under
deceleration and below 3000rpm. It sounds similar to the wheel of fortune and
is more plastic than metallic. We have pulled the valve cover and inspected
the timing chains and tensioners. These all appear to be okay, and show no
signs of wear. Can anybody tell us what is inside the Vanos, other than the
plunger gear, which could make this sound?
