Default Vtc or vvt actuator replaced and still making noise

I replaced the vvt solenoid yesterday on a 08 honda accord 2.4 . It was making the rattling that they all do at startup over time . I replaced it changed the oil and the actuator is still making the noise. Any ideas. How to check why its doing this. When people replace them normally does it just go away ?

Did you repace it with the same part number, or the revised part? How is the car doing now?

He is mixing up his parts. The solenoid and actuator are 2 different things.(though they are part of the same system)

Changing the actuator requires removing the timing chain.....
