This webinar will cover: -Design and function of the VVT system -Common Issues to look for -Complete breakdown of the Camshaft Adjuster unit -Testing procedures
Excellent video very informative, thank you for getting me out of a stuck situation due to a broken screen in the bearing bridge. You deserve an award.
This is amazing info, thanks for the upload. I used to think that if we manually operate the solenoids with test probe at idle than the engine can crank....
You're the most intelligent technician / mechanic I've ever seen on RU-vid regarding VVT on Volkswagen and Audi I had a similar problem with my cam adjuster valve it was sticking out and it gave me the runaround I have to do my timing chain six times before I finally was able to find the issue in the cam adjuster valve
Muchas gracias por esa informacion tan valiosa , acabo de experimentar problemas con este tipo de motor, y con esta informacion estoy seguro que se arregla, gracias
Chris, great webinar info. I’m a UPS pilot with a love of German cars and am a novice mechanic. I recently acquired a 2015 VW CC with 74k miles with the 2.0 TSI motor. Has random misfire codes and presented on day one a cranand camshaft position sensor fault. I bought it thinking oh, easy, change some sensors, or spark plugs and coil packs. Wrong. Learned about oil and carbon build up, media blasted, cleaned everything, serviced all injectors bench checked. New intake manifold and still have rough idle and rough running until about 3000 rpm. Then it all smooths out and it runs perfectly. I am guessing here that the one time the chain skipped a tooth and showed thr cam and crank codes. I reset them and replaced the sensors, probably they weren’t bad, and they don’t return as it only skipped one time. And no bent valves yet! So I either have screen failure and or chain skipped time. I checked my chain is only -.5 on stretch and being a 2015 it should have newer tensioner installed. Because car is running I’m thinking to just open top cam cover and remove cam tower bracket. What is your opinion of the Dorman bracket that has an updated stainless drilled and welded style screen that supposedly won’t ever fail. Or just use a VW one without a screen? And if I remove all screen bits, should I replace the solenoid valve that fits in the intake cam if any small metal particles get in there?
Nice detailed video . Thank you . One question . Why do you think the cam bridge sometimes dose not want to slide in the cams . I mean looks like the cams are dissaligned significantlly . I am not talking a little bit . I am familiar you can move them slightlly and easilly push it in , BUT in my case cam bridge dose not want to go in at all . I tried another bridge but same. I tried with lossen chain - same . I think one the cams are bent . after seeing your video I thought the adjuster may be the isse because cam is hollow and may easilly bent at the point where most tension is where the ajuster is located . This happens when you wear out the aluminum lob of the cam bridge. Give me your opinion . After 10 years there are tons of things I struggle with I went too far and still oil pressure
I'm repairing my 2.0 TSI CBFA. I have two engines. The original engine failed connecting rod #3 and has hole on the block. I'm using this engine for mu prsctice. I have a second engine which I bought and is identical but with about 90K miles. During my practice on engine #1 I had doubts on the VVT snd this video helped me gsin confidence on what I'm doing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience. How can I download the material?
Fantastic video! So incredibly detailed. Paints a perfect picture! So, do you have one about wives and their VTT (Variable Thinking Timing) in relationship to their husbands? That too would be fantastic! 😆
Hi I don’t own a Drive pro yet but eventually I will I do a lot of timing chain jobs on VAG cars and I mess up the first time doing a chain I forgot that I had the crank bolt and spacer off and I move the crank a bit and the timing gear set moved to the wrong notch and I had to reposition the gear at the proper place before installing the chains on I still don’t have the special fixture but now I make sure that I don’t any thing without the bolt and spacer installed before I put any cover back on I always check measure like you showed to make sure all is ok.
Hi great video…I saw VW it’s recommending to replace cam bridge and they also recommend to take out new screen out to prevent in the future to brake an stuck somewhere,what do you think about that?
Im getting fault code P0011 on my 2014 mk7 gti chh engine, took out the oil control valves the one from the intake cam looks damaged could it be the one that's causing the intake cam timing to over advance & not correlate with the crank timing?
So when you are talking about the sprocket saying if it’s off a little bit that it can drive you crazy thinking your timing is off, what can be symptoms of that, is it actual timing slack or just the code? Thanks
When you derive the crank angle, it sounds like you know the system fires ignition by crank sensor and that the ignition timing is not changing as the cam timing is? Otherwise, we have too many unknowns, right?
The magnet is super easy to remove, the pin tends to gum up and not move freely. My 1.8 passat ran rough or stalled when cold. You get scary timing codes like you might need a timing belt. Flushed the magnet through the two small holes and pin with carb cleaner till the pin moved freely. Issue never came back. 1.4 vw have same magnet too.
do I really need to get a new Camshaft Bridge(06H103144K) when I change engine head? Is where any mistake in it or I'm thinking about a different part?
Hi, I have a CJSA 1.8tfsi engine in my A3, there is a small “tring” noise when starting to load the engine, then unload it( realese clutch) it goes “tring “ again, My Audi dealer are trying to put me off and say there’s nothing wrong with it 😡, at first the said it was the camshaft adjuster solenoid at back of head , nearest the timing chain end , if you put your hand in it you can actually feel it in time with the noise , they changed it and did not solve it . They are now trying to say that it’s a “characteristic “of that engine. I have heard another 6 of these engines and no noise . I have a years warranty left on my 2 year warranty . I bought the car from Audi , had a full service history from Audi . I think they are just trying to fob me off as they will not make any money on warranty work or they don’t know what the problem is . Can you please help with any ideas , I also have a video of the noise I can send so you can hear the noise . Many thanks again, Gordon
Does anyone know how many degrees is full oil flow and how many degrees is full oil restriction? Got one in the shop thats asking for 28 but floats around -2 to -3 or so, seemingly erratic. I unplug the n205 solenoid and no change is observed on cam angle. Sound like a phaser lock or n205? 2.0 fsi. P0016 and I just did belt, chain, and respective tensioners on salvage yard engine.
I have a 2.0 superb... everything is ok but have some missing in idling and makes noise if I accelerate it but on high speeds beyond 30 it becomes silent
hello is a couple of mm of movement ok for the lockpin. If i hold the cam and move the sprocket I can get maybe 2mm of movement or wiggle. I did open the cover and checked springs and sludge it is ok. But i did see a ver minor bit of wear in he lock pin cut out. Thank you
hola buenas tardes... yo tengo problema de presion de aceite ya cambie su bomba de aceite pero sigue el problema... se cae la presion de aceite una vez que el aceite llega a los 95° de su temperatura la presion se viena a 0.5... podrian orientarme por donde empezar a mirar desde ya muchas gracias!!!
@@gottmituns3225 si eu am la un seat un sunet intre 1800si 2000 de rpm..am inlocuit axul cu came cu variator, solenoid, magnetul si blocul de aluminiu. Presiunea e buna (am masurat-o) si inca am zgomotul ala. nimeni nu stie ce sa-i mai faca.
I definetly have this kind of issue at my (my baby) A6 C6 (2006) 2.4 liter 24 valves V6 aspirated ( non turbo ) 177 hp, MPI code engine BDW...🏁🏁🏁 ⚪What should i do❓❓❓❔... ⛾
Dear followers!! Don't let the beautiful pictures confuse you . Anyone who buys a new car from GENERAL Motors the chance you threw your money into the trash is very large. In this company there is no customer service, the company's management does not care at all, if you have a problem or a malfunction, you can only pray to God there is a chance that the help will come faster. GM is a very dangerous company, be careful and keep your money safe.!!!Share so more people don't get screwed.GM is a big bluff
That cambridge also has a little ball valve with a tiny screen in it. Due to oil pressure the screen blows out and can end up in the system. Almost ALL of them do this. Horrible design once again VWAudi....
I had 1 one time at VW on a brand new at the time CC 2012ish, with a cold start cam fault. Took it apart thinking it was the screen but it was good. Threw a cam in it and problem was solved👊🏻
