Hey Folks, quick update. I took the valve cover off and I cannot see anything wrong with the intake/exhaust valves or the cam shafts or the valvetronic shaft.. I have attached a ton of photos of the Cyl7 valves rockers.



I am still waiting for the borescope, no news on that front, it should be arriving on the 3rd of Jan.



I did manually crank the engine over and throughout the whole firing cycle, there was a hissing sound (kind of sounds from the exhaust.) I do not think this is normal since Bank1 did not have the same sound.
