Finished Project and that Vanos Issue
 

Hello All,

For anyone interested, I bought this beauty last October , Did upload some pictures previously, and but for some appalling UK weather would have finished it a lot sooner..

HELP NEEDED ::: I now have to tackle the noisy Vanos bearings.. but please someone enlighten me.. It's a 2004 4.4S V8, N62 Engine.. Left Bank is Noisy, (as you sit in car - It's the left one) but I'll likely change both

Is it
a) Double Vanos
b) is there a Kit and best place to source it
d) Estimated repair time

I can find a Locking kit (Not cheap but def better than getting a dealer/Garage to fix)

Here's a few Before and after pictures
