Did you see for yourself, my friend, that some small things make a big difference?

And you my friend that best for you and your family. Greetings from sunny Greece.

This is because his way of presentation is unique, which just bind the viewer with the video and viewer forgets to hit thumbs up....simply it's this gentleman fault who made such clear, precise to the point videos❤❤❤

Thank you too my friend

Thanks dude. And do not forget the following: to live, to love and to learn.

Thank you my friend

You are welcome my friend. I do my best

شكرا يا صديقي وكوني بخير دائما ❤❤❤

I wish you that your new car is well traveled, safe, without particular problems and that you enjoy it. It is a very good and reliable car as long as you maintain it properly and take care of it. You have a lot of new things you don't know about your car but with time you will learn some of them.

@@YiannisPagonis Upon inspection, this vvti filter has been deleted on the 2zr-fe.

@@toyboxlemonza3293 Are you absolutely sure?

@@YiannisPagonis Yep, 110% sure. there is no filter bolt on my 1.8lt 2ZR-FE

Thank you very much my dear friend from Brazil and God bless you always. Greetings and many hugs also from Greece.

You are welcome my friend 😀😀

Thanks a lot my friend

my friend if I had such a car I would do it. My car does not have this accessory

Sinceramente, estou tão feliz pelo que você fez por conta própria, meu amigo. Bom para você. Você é digno!

@@YiannisPagonis 🙏🏻

You are welcome my friend

Thanks my friend for your suggestion. I already use protective gloves

in the video I saw him without gloves

@@anthonyquinones4782 Not in this video but in the next videos

My friend, do the best you can for your car so that you do not have additional problems but also for your safety.

Do it my friend and then you will see a difference in the operation of your engine. This work is included in the long-term preventive maintenance of the car.

@@YiannisPagonis Thank you friend

@@okdas8353 You are welcome my friend

Yes, because your car seems to be properly maintained (you change the engine oil at the right time and use the appropriate type of oil recommended by the manufacturer)

Thank you my friend. What does the oil control solenoid do? An oil control valve (also referred to as a VVT solenoid) is an important component of a vehicle with a variable valve timing (VVT) system. The existence of the system aims to control the performance of the engine utilizing two methods to retard and advance camshaft angle. Regards from Greece, too.

My friend watch my video below and you will see everything you need to know: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gPPBrU7cs-c.html

I used brake cleaner my friend

Did you measure the resistance first and then check the valve operation?

@@YiannisPagonis Hello, thanks for answering, yes, I measured the resistance of the VVT-I valve and it gave me 7.8 ohms, and I measured if there was contact between the connectors with the chassis and it gave OL. (no continuity).

The answer is NO

Code P1345 Toyota 1. Possible Causes: a. Faulty Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Sensor b. Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Sensor harness is open or shorted c. Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Sensor circuit poor electrical connection d. Engine Control Module (ECM) 2. How do I Fix the Code P1345 Toyota? Check the "Possible Causes" listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector's pins. 3. When is the Code P1345 Toyota Detected? No Variable Valve Timing (VVT) sensor signal to Engine Control Module (ECM) during cranking at 4 sec. or more. 4. What are Code P1345 Toyota Possible Symptoms? Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light) 5. Code P1345 Toyota Description Variable Valve Timing (VVT) sensor (VVT signal) consist of a signal plate and pickup coil. The VVT signal plate has 1 tooth on its outer circumference and is mounted on the intake camshafts. When the camshafts rotate, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pickup coil change, causing fluctuations in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force in the pickup coil. The actual camshaft angle is detected by the VVT sensor and it provides feedback to the Engine Control Module (ECM) to control the intake valve timing in response to during condition.

The following video may help you, my friend, to clean that filter you want ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CLbsfZbSgtg.html

my friend I tried to disassemble my car's generator but I saw that this was not so easy so I did not continue below. I was afraid of doing any damage to the generator.

Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid ($116.11) Part Number: 1533022050 Alternate Part Number(s): 15330-22050, 1533022030

My friend first (what I will tell you now is very basic) my car has absolutely no leakage either from oil, gas or anything else you can imagine. Second, I clean the engine compartment (not the engine) at regular intervals with cleaners that clean the plastic parts inside the car. There are a whole bunch of such products that you can easily find in a store that sells auto parts or even at a gas station. Just do it.

Just use a brake cleaner and you're fine

@@YiannisPagonis even carb cleaner can work.

@@chandamwila1754 Yes, of course you can do that

14 mm socket my friend

What exactly do you want my friend to do? I did not understand exactly what you want me to do

1. What does engine code P0015 mean? What Does the P0015 Code Mean? Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P0015 stands for Exhaust “B” Camshaft Position Timing - Over - Retarded (Bank 1). This code involves your vehicle's camshaft timing, specifically your variable valve timing (VVT) also known as variable camshaft timing (VCT). 2. How do I fix the code P0015? What repairs can fix the P0015 code? A. Resetting the fault codes and performing a road test. B. Replacing camshaft phasers on both camshaft banks. C. Repairing the wiring or connection to the camshaft OCV. D. Replacing the camshaft OCV for bank 1 exhaust camshaft. E. Replacing timing chain and guides.

My Corolla has a 4ZZ-FE engine 2009 model 1.4 cc 97 sub power

That its diesel??

@@riquermecedanio8968 No it is not. It is petrol

Ok thanks

Yes, it does. The part number is 15678-37010. I don't think the procedure is the same here. I myself am looking for the process to do the work on my own 2009 Corolla. EDIT: If you have the North American version, I just learnt the OCV filter is located under one of the camshafts, which means you'll have to remove the valve cover just to access it.

Το είδα φίλε μου και το είχα βάλει στη θέση της. Ευχαριστώ πάντως για την παρατηρητικότητα σου.

Common Symptoms of a Bad Oil Control Valve If you have oil control valve problems, then there are certain symptoms you can look out for. Some of them include slow acceleration, poor brake performance, and a strange burning smell in the car. Before it gets this bad, the computer in your vehicle should give you some warnings first on the dashboard. The most obvious warning will be when the “Check Engine” light is on. You may not know exactly why it’s on unless you experience those other symptoms mentioned before. And also the fuel economy is what will be affected the most. Remember if the oil control valve doesn’t manage the flow of oil properly then it will cause the engine to overperform and use up more fuel. This means you’ll be spending more money on gas while causing your exhaust valves to open and close at the wrong time. Sooner or later, the internal components of your engine will get damaged as a result. That is why it is best to take care of these problems as soon as you notice them happening. It is a lot cheaper to change your oil or replace the oil control valve then it is to replace your engine. Common Cause Believe it or not, there are lots of people who forget to change their oil on time. The reason you need to change your oil every 3-6 months, or every 5,000 miles, is because debris and dirt build up in the oil after a while. If the oil does not get changed then it will create a blockage which will prevent the oil from flowing into the camshaft and will cause the oil control valve malfunction. So always remember to change your oil and keep it as clean as you can.

You can get a code for P0011 or P0021. Sometimes it's just low oil or clogged valves in these solenoids.

CODE P0011 The first step that should be taken when attempting to diagnose a P0011 trouble code, is to change your vehicle's engine oil and oil filter. Be sure that your engine's oil is topped off to capacity, and that the proper viscosity of the oil is chosen. As many as 75% of P0011 DTCs are remedied with a simple oil change

@@YiannisPagonis I changed my crankshaft, bearing, metal and one connecting rod. Then changed the engine oil. Then this code came on. If I start the car when it is very cold, the engine starts to vibrate and idles very bad. If I move the gear lever to drive the car goes off. I have to wait for it to idle rough for like 10 to 15 minutes before it normalize and I can drive it. Could it be the timing wad not properly set well?

@@greatogbuagu1370 8 Reasons Your Car Vibrates When Stopped or Idling (and How to Fix) #1 - Dirty or Clogged Fuel Injectors Over time, parts of your fuel system, namely fuel injectors, begin to get clogged up by carbon deposits, varnish, or other sediments. This causes uneven amounts of fuel being delivered with each engine cycle. When this happens, you car will shake, shutter, or vibrate while idling since the constant flow of fuel to the combustion chamber is being interrupted. #2 - Worn or Dirty Spark Plugs Bad spark plugs are another common cause of your car vibrating when stopped. Dirt and carbon deposit build up will not allow your spark plugs to fire properly to ignite the fuel. This leads to the engine mis-firing which will feel like the vehicle is shaking at idle. Unless you’ve done so recently, replacing your spark plugs can often make things right. There are many types of spark plugs so you want to make sure you’re getting the correct ones. You should always refer to your owner’s manual for the exact specs. #3 - Disconnected Vacuum Hose Often overlooked but happens more than you may think, a vacuum hose in your engine may pop off while driving or be accidentally disconnected when working on your car. When a hose comes loose, it can cause the engine to shake and vibrate and possibly even stall out. A crack or tear in a hose may cause the same shaking, although to a lesser extent. Check all hose connections to make sure they are securely attached. If a hose feels loose, you will need to replace it or it will just come off again. Small air leaks are the hardest to find. In those cases, you can spray some soapy water along a hose while the engine is running. If there’s a crack somewhere, the soapy water will temporarily seal the leak and you’ll notice a change in idle speed. #4 - Torn or Cracked Timing Belt A timing belt (or other serpentine belt) which is stretched, cracked, or partially torn can also cause your car to shake when idling. In case of a timing belt, it’s a warning sign of a soon-to-be timing belt failure which you should appreciate. If your timing belt completely breaks, it can result in major damage to your engine.It’s critical to follow manufacturer’s guidelines when it comes to timing belt replacement intervals. #5 - Dirty Air Filter Along with an interrupted fuel supply (see dirty/clogged injector above), if your engine’s air intake is interrupted, it can also lead to your engine vibrating and not running as smooth as it should be. When your air filter is dirty or clogged, not enough air reaches the combustion chamber meaning not enough fuel is injected.This combination will cause your RPM to drop below the normal idle range (usually about 700 RPM), and your car will experience some shaking when you are stopped. In some cases, the RPM will drop low enough where the car stalls and needs to be restarted. #6 - Clogged Fuel Filter If your fuel filter is clogged, not enough fuel will be getting from the fuel pump to the injectors. This will cause the same type of shaking as clogged fuel injectors since not enough fuel is getting into the engine. #7 - Bad Motor Mounts Since one of the jobs of a motor mount is to dampen engine vibration so individuals in the car won’t feel it, a broken motor mount will make itself known very quickly. While a faulty engine mount will be more noticeable when the engine is working hard (like when accelerating), shaking and rattling at idle is usually noticeable as well. If you suspect a bad motor mount, you’ll want to take your car to a mechanic as soon as possible to confirm the issue and have the mount replaced. If left unchecked, it may cause other engine mounts to fail and even cause damage to other parts of the engine.For instance, the blades in the radiator fan can break from hitting the surrounding shroud because the engine is sitting lower than it should be due to a broken motor mount. #8 - Faulty Mass Air Flow Sensor Probably the least common reason for your car shaking while stopped, a bad mass air flow sensor (MAF) can be the culprit. Since its purpose is to properly calculate the air-fuel ratio for the engine, if it goes bad and sends incorrect readings to the car’s computer, the wrong amount of fuel can get injected into the engine at the wrong times. As already explained above, when not enough fuel gets into the engine than what’s needed, excess vibrating or shaking can be felt. A bad MAF will almost always cause the check engine light to go on so a scan of any stored diagnostic trouble codes can confirm the issue.😊

I used a brake cleaner

What is the function of camshaft timing oil control valve? The Oil Control Valve (OCV) is a a critical part used in every engine that is fitted with variable valve technology (VVT). A single control valve will regulate the supply of oil to a designated VVT hub, to advance or retard the timing by altering the camshaft angle position. What happens when oil control valve goes bad? With a faulty oil control valve or VVT solenoid, excess engine oil may be introduced into the VVT system which can result in rough idling, stalling, or just poor engine running in general.

@@YiannisPagonis Thank you for taking the time explaining to me. As you can see, I still trying "In Search of solutions for my "Lifter Noise" issue". I think this may be it since I never clean it or replace it for over 12 years and 200k miles. Also, this is not that difficult for my level. I will give it a try. Thanks again.

@@YiannisPagonis Here is my Diesel Corolla, may be OCV and the filter below ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4VdlkbwwSWo.html

@@callmebackfriday2 Why is my engine making a tapping sound? The most common cause of engine ticking noise is low oil pressure. ... Your engine may be low on oil or there could be a problem inside the engine causing the low oil pressure. Ticking, tapping, or clicking sounds can also be symptoms of worn valve train components such as lifters or cam followers.

@@YiannisPagonis Thanks for your reply so promptly. I think you are right because I watched lot of video have lifter/valve issue and they have very similar noise like my car even those are not all Toyota Corolla. Anyway, appreciated very much for your inputs.

Do you mean air filter?

@@YiannisPagonis .The question was: Where is the vvt valve filter found on the 2010 corolla. This is also my question too. Thanks in advance

Why does your car take a couple times to start? Low Fuel Pressure. The most common reason that your car might not start up easily, even if it's only been sitting for a few hours, is low fuel pressure. If the engine's fuel injectors aren't getting enough fuel, combustion can't begin in the engine and it won't start running on its own. Most likely, your hard starting is caused by a malfunctioning fuel pressure check valve, or fuel pressure regulator. The fuel system is supposed to hold a small amount of residual pressure in the system for faster starts. A leaking check valve makes the fuel pump work harder, and run longer when cranking, before adequate fuel pressure is available for the injectors.

Yiannis Pagonis thank u sooo much sir appreciated One more thing in this video you cleen this filter Yesterday i open this but badly the nob of the filter is broken inside Please let me know how i can remove Thanks again

Yes because there are some differences between this 10th generation Corolla especially if the VVT-I is dual and the engine type

It is a 2008 Toyota Corolla, 10th generation, 97 horsepower, 1400cc, made in South Africa.

Yes of course
