Pete Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I'm not sure what you mean by around the VVTi setup, but I wouldn't worry to much if it doesn't to it after normal standing periods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Ah, I'm with you now mate. I've never heard anything from that area, it would be interesting to find a cut out to see what parts are in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD3000GT Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 very likely it was just needing oil and it had all gone in to the pan.. I wouldnt worry too much mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkR Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Apparently the VVTI "stuff" only works once the engine reaches a certain temp... slightly off topic but just in case you're interested... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
