In this video I show you the cause of DTC P0016 Crankshaft Camshaft Correlation code. You may be tempted to replace the camshaft or crankshaft position sensors, but check the timing first.
Pete I wish I would’ve found this several $ ago. Swap sensors: MAP, temperature, oil pressure switch, also the one by the starter. Plus swapped throttle body, spark plugs, wires and coils. When she runs she runs pretty normal. Then every now and then, she’ll go into reduced engine power and eventually doesn’t start
Hey Pete this is Tony I've been a technician for over 40 some-odd years I tore down my first 53 this week because I had p0016 code in it I looked it up and it said that it jumped a tooth in and I tear down and it's in time but first it though the code for the cam sensor and you're right I like to never got that damn cancer throughout of there so now I tore it down I'm a little aggravated because she's in time.
Does yours have vvt or not? The one I did in the video did not have vvt so there was no way the p0016 would set unless it was out of time. If you have vvt then the actuator may be sticking or something wrong with the solenoid, bolt, or oil pressure.
Currently having the same problem its an intermittent crank no start with p0016 and am pulling my hair out because when it runs it runs perfect timing is fine
We have this code but she runs and drives fine expect the occasional press on the gas and there is like a slight loss of acceleration but it seems like water in the gas. Or is it the timing?
Pete, just found this issue on my 08 suburban. Do you just rotate the crank clockwise back into alignment with the cam? I just don't want to cause any valve damage by rotating the wrong way.
I would put the crank at TDC before removing the timing chain. Then you’ll only need to rotate the cam a couple teeth to get it right. But be careful because you’ll be fighting the valve springs.
@@PetesGarageandperformance shoot, I did the opposite before even thinking about the interference engine thing. I rotated the engine so the cam mark was at the 6 o'clock position then removed the chain and rotated the crank mark to the 12 o'clock position.
Yeah ive got an 08 Yukon throwing the cam position code. And the running lean code. Im sure its that timing chain. $900 labor im ready for. More than $1200 just for labor will hurt. Lol. Thanks for the info
@@PetesGarageandperformance damn 🤦🏾♂️ I just bought a 2007 Yukon and it runs like crap and have the p0016 code I'm glad I ran into your video b4 I started throwing parts at it
@@PetesGarageandperformance i know man but my case is my engine runs poorly and there is not problem to start the car engine starts right away but runs poor when code p0016 appears
I can’t even begin to count how many times I’ve seen people replace something that was working just fine and have the new one fail. If it ain’t broke, don’t mess with it.
I wouldn't even attempt the job like that unless I replace the oil pump everything that's come loose is in the oil pump make the call like Eric O says lady we found your problem and the money light is on cha-ching
