EDITOR'S NOTE: This article replaces the one posted in September 2015 to extend that article's shelf life. The issues
covered are still being addressed.
Do you have a vehicle that makes an engine rattle for 1 to 2 seconds when started after a cold overnight soak below
32° F? This rattle is most likely related to the VTC actuator.
We've made successive improvements with multiple countermeasures, but there may still be some vehicles out there
that still have these symptoms. We're currently working on a solution, but have no recommended dealer repair at this
time.
