What happens if a cam phaser goes bad?
The common design of cam phasers is to get into a locked position when idle. However, a faulty cam phaser will fail to lock back into place at idle. The wrong positioning of the cam phaser creates a rattling or knocking sound near the top of the engine. This noise is most evident when the engine is hot and idle.
