| Description of the problem | My vehicle is suffering from an extremely common problem within the 4th generation crv - the vtc actuator is making a grinding noise during cold startups. There is a active bulletin regarding the issue, tsb 16-012 ver. 2. The issue is further compounded by the fact that it does not happen literally every single time i turn the car on. It only happens sometimes. The dealership told me to leave it with them overnight. Then in the morning they will test it and try to duplicate the problem. If they can't duplicate it, then they won't fix it. This is frustrating. |
