dephaser noise??!!

Car  Clio 172 cup
hi guys just wonderig what noise a dephaser makes if its on its way out?
and what job does it do?
thnks
:S
 
The dephaser is a oil driven cam pulley as such, it advances and retards the timing (But not for performance like Vtec)

They normally rattle/sound like a diesel when ilding when warm, but the noise should go away once you rev it over 1500 rpm as that is when it should do it's thing as it where.

Bear in mind they can also make noise from cold, but more likely when warm
 
cheers russ mine noisey when cold and when hot, doesnt get any louder when reved up.
are they a pig to replace?
