Defcon5 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Is this immediatley after the belts were done? They must have put it back together wrong, or broke something whilst doing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s3boy Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 what could the fault be then? what could they have broken when they changed the cambelt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon5 Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Could they have just not got the timing right? Although I would have thought that will make it run like a bag of spanners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s3boy Posted February 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 (edited) that was my first suspicion, but the car drives perfect, its really confusing... Edited February 7, 2010 by s3boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99hjhm Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Clear the faults, drive it for a few days and recheck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Timing definitely looks to be the cause of the fault! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s3boy Posted February 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 ok, quick update, have replaced the purge valve, camshaft pressure actuator, and the camshaft timing adjustment for the vvti, the oil light is still flashing and have also noticed one of the fuses keeps on blowing in the fuse box(i think its fuse number 30, will have to double check)they have also refitted the cambelt adjusting the notching(once clockwise, then twice anti-clockwise) btoh times the car drove like a pile of crap, so dont think it could be that,does anyone have an idea as to what the problem could be?

nfbr Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Check the oil pickup pipe inside the sump. If it's blocked, oil will not have been getting to the top of the engine properly causing the VVT System to run dry and kill itself.Does it sound very 'Ticky' when it's running ?
