Message	Disconnecting the VTC's won't matter... it is more to do with the cam profile that makes them rattle. They won't all do it, but a lot of them do, and sometimes even upgraded cam gears won't make it stop. Mine did it the whole time I had those cams. It was quieter when I ran thicker oil, but it never stopped. Clack clack clack clack. If you put your finger on the VTC cam gear front cover, gently, when the engine is running, you will feel it.
