I need to replace my VANOS. It's plain worn out. Looking for a good core with pistons and plates I can rebuild.

I don't think any one would want to have to pay for a new one, eh? and they're not even new... "remanufactured" and... you'd still have to upgrade the seals before installing...

That's interesting. ECStuning has it for $608 (not re-manufactured), but I guess FCP has that lifetime warranty...

I think I gat get it at Kristen's dealership for around $500 but that still too much money and I already have the full Beisan kit on hand...

Anybody got one laying around?

Hmm, that might still work if no one else has one...
I'm going to be in Ohio until next week at the reunion and visiting family in Columbus. I could wait a few more days after that...

what about just rebuilding it? reseal or reseal + anti-rattle kit? it's super easy.

My VANOS is worn out. The bores have too much wear. I already have a full Beisan kit. I just need a donar VANOS for a core.

No it was a Dr VANOS so the age/mileage is unknown

Yep the only downfall of swapping the unit
