@Mnbrennan is going to look in to possibly seeing if he can do mine

I don't think that this is a DIY job but I would be more than happy to be proven wrong.

Like I said its needs to be looked in to and in detail before a decision is to be made

Morning @Grumpy, a mate of mine bought a second hand engine for less than the 800 odd quid that it would have cost him to get the Vanos repaired.

Morning H/T. I got a little worried yesterday when I started the car to go to Tonys and there was a ticking coming from the front end of the engine bay. Like already stated I didn't know what the vanos was although I've read plenty about them getting noisy. Thankfully it turned out to be the broken fan blade ticking.

Don't want to worry you @Grumpy but you have got double Vanos....
