Just got mine back after repairing VCT. Upside: no more weird clacking noises on start up. Downside? Nothing yet, truck seems to run good. I'm forever going to be mindful, but keep in mind that you routinely have to R&R timing belts on most cars anyway (so, it's not rocket science...though, it is a bit disconcerting that they took the entire cab off of the chassis to get to the TB.

How long did it take for dealership to replace the phasers? I'm going on a month.

How long did the actual repair take? My dealer diagnosed my issue, said I can drive it till the parts get here. I'm hoping it is a quick turnaround.
