2010 Volkswagen Routan SEL 4.0L engine noise VIN: 2V4RW5DX8A
Thank you for your replies. The lifters on this vehicle are an unusual setup, where they are part of the rocker arms. Apparently getting them to bleed takes some time. There is no easy way to bleed these manually. We drove the vehicle about 7 miles & the noise...
