Post by **darrylrobert** » 27 Mar 2020, 08:43

Is it possible to swap my 2001 VVT hub (spring type) with my 2002 VVT (non spring type)?..i have searched and can only find one part number 9497786,
and only one website saying this will fit my car.

Look at the last six digits on your VIN number. Part number 9497786 is for chassis numbers 48000 and higher.

Exhaust VVT 1275363.

I would to to the local self service yard and get a couple for $11.00 before I forked over $300.00 for a new one.

Here in Kansas (the other land of OZ

) the yards are deemed essential service. They will be open during a lockdown.
