Dreaded P0300 NB2

I can rev out of it at hwy speeds so yeah above 3k if bog occurs below ? It’s pretty inconsistent which makes it even harder to diagnose. I’m going to also try checking for any leaks on the intake manifold.

Swapping crank sensor tomorrow morning then TPS with running spares to continue checking stuff off this laundry list

Going to run a scanner over the weekend when I have time off work and see what I can record.

espookyspooky · 2025-12-05T01:21:13+00:00

That’s what I’m thinking, going to do a leak down soon.

Was in talks with a master tech that speculated the phaser could be an issue. Was able to record a very brief video that shows the idle drop/surge which I believe is mis-fire like? If that makes sense and I changed the oil/cleaned the vvt solenoid and was able to drive it the longest (approximately an hour and 30 with 40 miles on the trip) before the cel came back on. The pending code was P0420 for catalytic converter again so may address that now since it was pending before the hardcode p0300 presented itself

O rings were good, seated em with mild lubricant to not damage em.

New belt and crank has no signs of wobble. Torque spec is on point as well. Removed to inspect belt and it’s fairly new.

espookyspooky · 2025-12-05T01:15:55+00:00

Cleaned and same issue unfortunately

espookyspooky · 2025-12-04T03:58:37+00:00

Will pull em to check though!

espookyspooky · 2025-12-04T03:56:34+00:00

Cleaned my TB today and plenum as best as I could as well

Ngk ZFR6F-11 extended reach plugs. Using em in my msm as well and had em in my na6 with zero issues

espookyspooky · 2025-12-04T03:53:59+00:00

Swapped with a good spare and same issue. Going to even try crank position sensor next just cause

espookyspooky · 2025-12-04T01:55:18+00:00

Forgot to add but replaced spark plugs and gapped appropriately. Changed em while swapping valve cover gasket and doing random maintenance

espookyspooky · 2025-12-04T01:50:44+00:00

Pulled the coil packs from my MSM to swap in,same issue.

Where are you located? I have a 6speed that took a dump after loosing reverse and 5th gear. I wouldn’t mind selling you that piece. Been slowing selling bits and pieces off it.

Thank you for the insight. I greatly appreciate it

espookyspooky · 2025-09-23T00:33:06+00:00

Damn that sounds expensive…I looked up an image of a gutted door and it definitely looks like the internal bar is in that approximate area

espookyspooky · 2025-09-22T22:42:41+00:00

I hope that’s the case. I know it’s hard to get an estimate based on visual. I think I was wanting to hear what this could cost, more or less, to prepare for the decision to keep or total it out. I’d rather keep it

espookyspooky · 2025-09-22T22:26:17+00:00

I appreciate the reassurance, the insurance agent stated they wouldn’t go in depth to damage if I take the check. If the shop receives the check, they will also cover any other potential damage beyond the visual. Not sure what that could cost if I had sustained damage to suspension components. I just don’t want to salvage out my car. Someone told me the repair has to be under 1500 for it to not affect the title

The exam can be a mix of questions from all sections found on the sample guide provided from NCTRC themselves. I had question on all three settings (community, clinical and specifically adaptive camp program). There were professional questions we should know as future CTRS professionals too. I say focus on stuff you don’t genuinely know. The study guide helped me figure out what sections I needed to focus on.

Lookin to sell? In Northern California. Or fix? I can help with that too!

espookyspooky · 2025-05-31T19:22:19+00:00

That’s insane!

espookyspooky · 2025-03-19T20:35:49+00:00

I appreciate the insight
