    NORMAL
    • DTC judgment completed

    • System normal

    ABNORMAL
    • DTC judgment completed

    • System abnormal

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips

Abnormal Bank

Timing Over Advanced

(Valve timing is out of specified range)

Timing Over Retarded

(Valve timing is out of specified range)

Bank 1 P0011 P0012
Bank 2 P0021 P0022

  • If DTC P0011 or P0012 is displayed, check the right bank VVT system (bank 1).

  • Bank 1 refers to the bank that includes cylinder No. 1.

  • If DTC P0021 or P0022 is displayed, check the left bank VVT system (bank 2).

  • Bank 2 refers to the bank that does not include cylinder No. 1.

  • DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 or P0022 may be set when foreign objects in the engine oil are caught in some parts of the system. The DTC will remain set even if the system returns to normal after a short time. Foreign objects are filtered out by the oil filter.

  • Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 OR P0022)


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the tester on.

      Result Proceed to
      DTC is not output A
      DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 or P0022 is output B

      Tech Tips

      DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 or P0022 is output when foreign objects in engine oil are caught in some parts of the system. These codes will remain stored even if the system returns to normal after a short time. These foreign objects may then be captured by the oil filter, thus eliminating the source of the problem.
