You'd have to measure it. I don't see why you couldn't leave the filters out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go for a drive and get a log, you might see it play up then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also just thought and also read that the cam sensor can cause stalling ...can also cause that code to pop up (and also no code sometimes) and a few symptoms I've had in past and I know it's the original sensor ...I have. A spare one here so I'll chuck it on and gox from there aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jas98 Member 1,043 Member For: 12y 5m Gender: Male Location: Maryborough Qld Posted 18/12/24 10:07 AM Author Share Posted 18/12/24 10:07 AM Changed both cam sensors with a couple spares I had other day. Car seems to be idling slightly better but it never was a rough idle anyway . Anyway checked codes before and code was there again however I can't remember if I cleared code or not other day before sensor change. I've been reading and usually that code is a skipped chain but also a vct oil supply issue aswell. I know at start up sometimes there a lifter tick (very loud) that goes aways after like 5-10 seconds that it has had over the last couple years but always comes good ....unless if the vct solenoids causing it but there like 2.5 years old..ultra tech branded ones Other thing is if timming has skipped surely there would be another code aswell plus I would assume it wouldn't go as good as it does and idle would be bad? I will rip cover off and check timming marks anyway and... Yes I need to monitor and log ..but I'm trying to work out how I play back on forscan to watch it haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cars done like 406 000 ks on engine and on startup sometimes there's a rattle from top and for say 2-4 seconds then instantly quiet again. Or can a cam solenoid also cause them to rattle at amstart up? As I know there's a pin in the phasers that locks etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
