2011 Lexus ES 350 noise in the morning ??
My 2011 Lexus ES 350 makes noise in the morning for 2 seconds ?? This only happens occasionally and only in the morning, the car runs perfectly fine, I am told it could be the vvt solenoid ??
Here is what it sounds like

That's shorter than most I've heard, yes sounds like VVTi gear rattle it's super common. I have it on my RAV4 maybe it will blow up at some point but by then the car will likely be ready for the scrap yard.
