Anyone have any DIY experience in changing a CVVT control solenoid on an ‘09 genny 3.8? Trying to avoid spending major $$$ at the shop if I can change this myself safely. Thanks for any info.

Found a small leak on mine, noticed rattling noise and rough idling but no check engine light warning. Thoughts? Pictures attached.2ECC3F3C-43ED-4620-A2BB-83127BFFDBB2.webp68116B9C-5D48-448C-B340-E443CDB411F0.webp3B0433DA-0DB9-432C-B9FD-B8C6BDA27CAE.webp
 
You’re the real MVP.
Thank you so much for helping me identify what it really was.
One small issue though about the links, its in Chinese. By any chance would you know where to find/purchase the oil seal compatible to my car?
 
I am a chinese live in korea.

the 1-2 seconds rattle noise at cold start is the bad of CVVT phase.

rough idling: You need to clean the throttle body. and use CRC air mass sensor cleaner to clean air mass sensor.
