Default So may have found the culprit.>>>>>

so the fpdm will probably be here tomorrow or day after but I think I may have found a more accurate cure, though I cannot guarantee until I try it of course. so we talked about the tick that I have, and how I know its probably not the phasers, but I found this video and it describes my truck to the "T" .. check it out. >>>>

Default Well fpdm didn't do it .....

So that module made no difference but it needed replaced anyhow and for $56 it's def worth peice of mind not being stranded during the winter. Anyways I am confident the vct valves are the culprit. They should be here tomorrow and if I can get them in I will write up my findings.

You will most likely have to remove the valve covers to replace them...

Unless you can get the solenoid gaskets out without taking off the valve covers... good luck with that, I couldn't get mine off without pulling the covers and knocking them out with a hammer

Trust me, I wish my 07 was as easy as removing the metal gasket and replacing the solenoid. I would have already done it honestly.
