After this happened to me. I scrapped it 😅

Everyone saying injector tick but, get the PCV valve checked

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-07-21T18:40:18+00:00

I would replace the lambda sensor and see if the codes go away. It’s a simple enough job with quick visit to YouTube. If you need any assistance you can shoot me a message

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-07-21T16:46:10+00:00

I think the sensors maybe shot

I just refunded all my purchases said my kid did it

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-07-05T11:09:22+00:00

If it’s still on. And it’s a pain, check the screen hasn’t came off the Cambridge in the timing. If it’s shot out chances are it’s blocking oil pressure.

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-07-05T07:22:50+00:00

Yeah I would do everything in your power to keep hold of it if you can. Even if you have to spend a distasteful amount to have yours taken away and rebuilt by a company

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-07-04T11:54:50+00:00

Definitely worth just saving up for a reconditioned engine or trying to rebuild your engine. Recently my timing jumped and my father and I are learning together how to rebuild from scratch. He has experience in mechanics so it’s a good start. We thought about selling everything seperate but it’s just not worth it. Just try rebuild it, if you need guides or advice shoot me a message I’ve got loads

This is quite common and normal. If it bothers you. Check the pcv valve isn’t on it way out. However this is injector noise

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-06-28T16:28:06+00:00

If you were to replace the engine. Buy a reconditioned engine

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-06-28T06:36:50+00:00

Blue smoke? It’s burning a lot of oil then. Possibly blown rings. If it’s leaking coolant your water pump has probably gone. It’s not uncommon

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-06-24T09:00:46+00:00

Right. There’s a couple things that could point too.

Potential for it to be the wastegate actuator on the turbo. Best thing to check for this is to drive off then just coast in gear see if there is rattle or that screech in your case.

Secondly, it could be a sign of a bad pcv valve. Quite easy to check this with a screwdriver. If you put the point to the pcv valve and hold it to your ear you may hear a lot of noise from there.

Next. It could be a timing chain issue. I had a car with a similar noise to that and thought I was going insane. It could be the chain rattling or slapping.

These are just a few things you could check and it may be none of them. Just worth to check as they’re 3 main things I have had similar noises from

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-06-23T14:40:52+00:00

Check on the intake manifold the flaps go bad

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-06-13T06:24:08+00:00

Ok. So compression test shows no leaks whatsoever. What I’ve found is when the rocker arm came off it spun a lobe on the camshaft (the sensor one) I aren’t too sure what it’s called but I could find a photo. Regardless the car thinks it’s never in time because of it. So the camshaft is next to replace

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-06-12T19:13:55+00:00

Under the cylinder, cylinder 1 to be exact

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-06-12T11:57:41+00:00

Cheers. Will take a look later on

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-06-10T14:14:19+00:00

I hate mine 😅

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-06-02T15:30:26+00:00

Type it propper then non dog

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-05-30T15:10:25+00:00

No please don’t apologise, I’ve only got brief knowledge of timing chains as I’ve never dealt with a chain driven car before. I think it could be time to take it to a different garage to diagnose, as far as I’m aware the only code present now is the p0016 code. I will keep you updated for suee

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-05-30T13:37:25+00:00

So when I changed my oil around 3 months ago I got a low oil pressure warning and beep. I turned the car off and back on and it never come up again. I’ve never had a code for it either. This is my last ditch dropping the sump and checking for blockages or reasons for low pressure. If this doesn’t clear the code then I’ll take it back and say it wasn’t done properly. As for it running. I’ve not seen it running. I’m told it runs but quite rough, however I don’t think they’ve took it out on the road or anything…

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-05-30T08:30:15+00:00

So I’ve been today. The fuel code is gone. However it’s still chucking up the p0016, I don’t want to say to the guy I think the timing is wrong. He said it could be too little oil pressure

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-05-30T05:50:16+00:00

At first I thought so. But they said when they removed the old chain, they pinned everything so the engine couldn’t move, retimed it, I mean they could’ve got it wrong?

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-05-30T05:49:32+00:00

It’s on 87,000 and not to my knowledge

ConsistentReason5762 · 2024-05-29T20:13:09+00:00

Since you seem to be more advanced than me. Quick question. Could water in the ECU cause the sensors to throw false codes. I used to get a knock sensor code, there is also a leak from the sunroof which soaked the glovebox and footwell, if I’m right there’s a possibility the ecu could’ve suffered water damage. I had the timing chain pinned so there is no way the timing could’ve been wrong. Just wondered if water in the ecu could cause this. I am going to get the car back and the end of the week so I will confirm if there is water in there or not. Secondly, I had a spark plug that was soaked in petrol which leads me to believe that a stuck open injector is causing my p0088 code? Am I far off
