INSPECTION PROCEDURE HINT
| Advanced timing over (Valve timing is out of specified range) | P0011 |
| Retarded timing over (Valve timing is out of specified range) | P0012 |
- If DTC P0011 or P0012 is displayed, check the VVT system circuit.
- Read freeze frame data using a hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool. Freeze frame data record the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. 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.
NOTE:
DTC P0011 or P0012 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.
