I want to ask you to investigate a problem that has Honda with the vtc actuator (variable temporal control) which lead to a rattle noise when start in cool weather and most of the mechanics know about it. The vehicle was stationary and present the fail when started in cold conditions. On their dealer own words: the vtc is worn out causing the rattle sound and chain is stretched. The tensioner crack seal needs to be changed. All of their answers make me think is a manufacturing problem because they knew about it and that Honda should make a recall. The cost was thousand and six hundred dollars (1,600). They needed to open the engine and the noise didn't go away even after the repairs and the car is now accelerated a little too much. I really appreciate your time and your response either way is investigated or not. Cesar vela.
Timing chain and tensioner is defective making noise on starting every morning mailly on cold starts,but does it when hot also.
