Hey guys, I am having an issue that maybe you guys could help me out with.
I am replacing the VTC actuator on my 2006 Type-S (grinding noise on start-up) and I am having trouble removing the VTC actuator bolt from the camshaft. I was wondering if this bolt is just a PITA or am I doing something wrong?
My friend and I were using a breaker bar and an adjustable wrench while turning the bolt counter-clockwise. We gave up and decided to go get a 22mm wrench and go at it again tomorrow. I just wanted to confirm that I'm doing it right...I get paranoid when things don't come lose lol
I'm very mechanically inclined but I just don't really know the inner workings of the VTC system so I wanted to know if there was anything I had to do before removing the bolt (like unlocking the actuator). Any help is appreciated as I have never done a cam install or anything so this is the first time I've touched this bolt.
And yes, I did search but it seems that this is not a big issue...maybe I'm just more paranoid than others who just go at it if it doesn't come off lol
Thanks!
