Hi George,
I always appreciate your valuable input to this group and you really helped me through this a couple of years back. At that time, I pulled my VC so I didn't need to scope it.
But it seemed to me then that you could scope in through the oil fill and at least see if a given Torx Vanos bolt has the center security pin which would indicate the presence of faulty bolts. The replacement bolts are just normal Torx bolts.
I don't know of a new RCRIT as I used the one you had supplied back then.
I'm awaiting the mailed recall so I can plan my next move as I completed the repairs a few years back.
