Excellent camera angles and lighting! I’ve watched a ton of EA888 videos, but this is the first one was by far the most revealing. Cheers!
Wow, thanks! Appreciate the feedback
Thank you sir very knowledgeable on the possible issues thanks again I saved the video to watch again later , again thanks
Thank you as well! Much appreciated!
Excellent video. Very instructive. You know your stuff...
I appreciate that! Thank you!
Great videos!!!! You are helping me a lot!
Glad to hear it! Thank my whole point of my channel, appreciate your support
top man, very helpful.
Glad it helped, thank you!
Thank you so much, my 2013 Audi q3 has exactly those codes, and exactly the symptoms you said.. low oil warning on traffic and epc light flashes like at 1500 rpm
Hope it’s just the vvt selenoid
No problem! Can be the oil control valve, can bridge the solenoid itself doesn’t really fail. I have many videos on my channel to help you fix your car no problem
Very informative.. Thanks
My pleasure!
great video
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comment!
Do they sell the Spring ball and filter for the vvt solenoid houseing or do you have to buy the hole houseing . Your videos have been very helpful
Thank you! You do have to buy the whole assembly. But they are not expensive especially if you go aftermarket which is just fine. Here’s a link

Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with everyone, I have a 2015 Tiguan and thanks to you trying to solve those 3 codes that appear together. But I have a question, these parts that you talk about as possible causes, how do I know if they are good or defective? I would like to be able to send you photos of the condition of the camshafts, they are badly damaged and I am not sure what the cause is. Thanks in advance. Greetings
Thank you!
Can you post them on your channel and I’ll take a look
@@Motorcarnut Thanks. I will do it
Hello, thank you so much for this super informative video! I just came across this code p000A after installing an aftermarket cold air intake? Could it be that something is loose in the intake? Never had this code before installing the cold air intake.
It’s the cold air intake, car doesn’t need it.
And thank you for the compliment
I have no codes for any timing or camshaft related issues, however the area near the solenoid and oil control valve is just very loud. It is much louder than the HPFP or injectors. My car does have 250,000 miles so there's probably many parts that could use replacing.
Timing chain tensioner is probably on its way out. Would not drive it much longer until a mechanic verifies the problem. I have many videos on the engine you may want to check out.
a VW mechanic can hookup a computer and verify if the timing chain needs replacing. If you do not, it will be bad if the chain breaks.
I told him what to do a week ago
We have the POO11 code after replacing the cam sensor, the cam magnet solenoid, as well as the valve that the magent pushes on. We had replaced the magnet solenoid with an aftermarket from the parts store. The car made a sound like a diesel at idle at this point. We switched back to the OEM magnet solenoid and it seems better but only after clearing the code using the scanner at the parts store.
A couple of questions if you happen to see this.
1. Does the code need to be cleared for things to start working correctly or was it just a coincidence that it seems to run better?
2. Plugging in the new magnet we had removed and then starting the car caused the plunger to extend after about 2 seconds at idle. Should it be extended at idle? To be clear we had put the OEM solenoid back in but wanted to see if the magent was activated at idle, which it was. I question if it should be extended at idle or at a higher RPM. I'm guessing the magnet is either on or its off rather than being variable?
Thanks
Actually it's a variable controlled solenoid. Your problem is probably the cam bridge check ball missing giving the symptoms you described. Have videos on that as well.
Thank You for sharing your knowledge. I have a 2012 A4 2.0 TFSI . I had a rattling sound and bad misfire, sounded and acted like timing chain. Replaced chain, still bad misfires that a new PCV valve solved. Car runs perfect no CEL. But i still have a loud rattle and i discivered if i unplug the magnet on the upper cover the rattles go away. I replaced that electromagnet and still has the problem, but goes away when unplugged. The loud rattle is above 2k rpm. Where should I be looking for the cause?
Thank you!
Hmm, could be the oil control valve or the vvt gear both are directly related to your problem but I would think that it would throw a code for timing? Did you replace chain tensioner too?
@@Motorcarnutyes, updated tensioner, I used a febi-bilstein kit. Do you see a need to replace the cam bridge or can they be cleaned and checked for screen remnants? Are VVT units a common fail point, or is it usually just the oil control valve? Thanks and it's amazing that you reply to our comments! Do you have a pay channel or method to do paid consulting and diagnostics?
@@Motorcarnutif I have no CEL, but I'll scan with my OBD11. Anything I should look for in live data or anything else?
The vvt units don’t usually go, but in your case I thought to check them. Cam bridge can be checked as well. Thank you and yes I have a PayPal account for donations on my channel page.
If you have misfires you will have codes
Can these 3 codes altogether trigger EPC light blinking when car pick up in starting gears???
Absolutely
So, is it likely that a p0341 code, after having replaced fuses, fuel pump, crank shaft sensor, coils, injectors, and also having a clean idle that it would be the unrevised tensioner or that, thing with the button on it? MK6 GTI TSI
Can be one or both
My solenoid is more sunken in and not flush with that outside barrier, but the inner dish would that cause it to be bad?
Are you talking about the button on the oil control valve or the pin on the electric solenoid?
Do these codes also cause your car to rattle when driving? Also how would you get the screen out if its stuck in the middle and you don't find it in the beginning or at the end by the vacuum pump?
Yes it will and you would have to take the cam bridge and on the other side the vacuum pump and blow through with compressed air.
Do you have any advice, the engine light just came on with code p0011, so far thats it. the car runs thru oil at a crazy rate, i cant tell where that oil is going, the exhaust is sooty and smells gassy. the idle is inconsistent, and when its cold the engine wants to surge and if its in gear i need to keep it from moving forward. ive had no idea what the problem was but yesterday was doing the surging worse than normal and the light came on. 2015 jetta tsi
The video explains it, did you watch it?
So I got a p0341 circuit to range ,code on my the weird thing it only happens when I do a hard turn my car stutters sometimes even dies and throws a epc light for a sec then goes off
Check your engine oil level. These engines are very critical about that
Would this part failure cause a bank 1 phaser (VCDS measuring block 93) to be +40?
Yes
When replacing the cam bridge, do i have to worry about the timing?
No you don’t
Can camshaft bridge just be replaced without disturbing cam chain timing? Thanks
Great question and the answer is yes!
Have a skoda octavia vrs 2.0 tsi 2012 was quiet as a mouse then out the blue rattles felt bad vibration from cam cover so just ordered a timing chain kit.. Got a garage to fit it didn't make any change to the rattle so I'm thinking did they check the screen was still there in the bridge also if the kits has all the parts ie oil pump chain/tensioner they should fit it but didn't.. I've checked vvt solenoid and magnet all good guessing possible bad vvt sprocket.. Next step sump off and check screen and oil pump.. I know the TSI are known for hunger on oil but only had the vehicle 2 months 3000 miles and topped up 4 litres of oil?.. P.s sorry for essay 😁
Sounds like something is blocking the oil passages and make sure oil control valve on plastic timing cover under solenoid is not blown, they are known for that as well.
@@Motorcarnut OK thanks for the info and reply much appreciated i will get it looked at
@davidblackburn9169 no problem
My fw Jetta 2012 reads these codes with no start could this be the only problem!??
Not the only problem but more than likely
Hi I’ve just recently brought a polo gti and code p00100, p001600 coming up it’s very recently had a timing chain job I replaced the sensors reset the code engine light came back on I’m not sure what to do, do I check the solenoid valve or not another thing is I’ve seen that there is a slight leak in my oil sump im not sure if this is the issue of you could give me some advice much appreciated
Can be this in the video or the oil control valve as well. Have other videos on that as well
@motorcarnut you 100% correct thankz... On my car it was the "oil control valve" which controls the oil which goes to the camshaft... 😁
@WesleyMadai-tp5yp Great! Thanks for the update!
Could the low oil pressure light come on w/no codes?!
Absolutely
I have the P0013. The car shuts off when coming to a stop. Any advise?
Yes, follow the video, its related to the oil control valve or cam bridge problem. Unless you still have the original timing chain tensioner
What can be the cause if you just have the P000A alone by itself? Thank you
Same as in the video
Mine sounds like a diesel engine. Not sure if this it. No engine codes. 😢
Could be the timing chain and tensioner
Hi mate is there any common issue for low oil pressure on this engine
You want to make sure oil pressure sensor is good and the connector is locked in.
@@Motorcarnuti replaced all 3 sensors. 2 on filter housing one on front of block
Then maybe the oil pick up screen is partially blocked oil oil pump itself but that is a bit rare but does happen
@@Motorcarnutthe engine veen completely redone pistons and all are new . The engine is a rebuilt unit from germany . Iv read that rebuilt engine are known to do this . Iv replace the oil control solenoids. Was wondering could problem be up in the cyclinder head . I will do more digging thank you my friend
I had a serpentine belt brake and a lot of the rubber when in the crank seal in the bottom I took the the pulley off and there was rubber in there by the chain I took it out and put it back together and oil light kept coming on then the car shut off and won’t start and it sounds like no compression I’m not sure what it is but I did get a new code p 0011 would you be able to guide me or do I have to buy a new motor
When you take the crankshaft pulley off you have to be careful as everything can just move so easily without the plastic tool you’re supposed to use. You probably jumped timing at a minimum.
@@Motorcarnut would I have to replace the motor and can it loose compression it had started up I drove it oil light kept coming on then it just shut off thanks so much for answering I need this
No problem If it jumped timing yes you can lose compression and cause all your problems. I have so many videos on these engines if you want to check them out.
@henryfigz808 you know what I have in the shop now the same problem! Car had a leak and was leaking on the belt and got shredded into the crankshaft seal and all the remnants clogged the oil pump pick up screen causing all kinds of codes low oil pressure etc. I’m working on this one as we speak. Not sure if it destroyed the engine yet but doesn’t look that way yet. So yours should be fine to but have to get all that belt material out of the engine.
@@Motorcarnut wow yea thats what I was experiencing oil light kept coming on is that car starting well mine was starting and then just shut off how can I get all that out the motor or should I just clean where the timing cover is
What does this job cost
Varies from state to state and mechanic shop or dealer
I have a Gen 1 2.0 TSI on a 2009 Tiguan. Bought it with issues and have replaced the VVT valve, VVT Solenoid, Cam Sensor, Crankshaft sensor and did a timing chain job. When I opened the cam bridge the ring was there, but the screen gone and I don't see it anywhere. My scanner is showing the Phase Position Bank 1 intake at 7-8 degrees at 720-760 RPM idle. The oil is right and the oil sump looks good. I am thinking I have a bad Cam phaser or the screen is somewhere in it. Drives ok and I just did 10 miles, but got P000A, P0011, and P0341. I think I need a new cam/cam phaser, but its $1100 so want to make sure before I go down that road. Any advice? What else could it be?
Is the ball valve still in the cam bridge? I don’t think it’s the cam phase, it’s a pretty simple device and you can take it apart and clean it out, they rarely go bad. Sounds like an oil control problem if you did all the other things already. Or that screen is somewhere blocking oil flow which is very possible. Problem is, where is it? Can be anywhere.
Thanks for the reply, great video. Yes, the ball is still there. I think the previous owner had the cam position senso go out and kept driving it, but who knows. I am popping the cover this weekend to take a look at what is really happening and maybe find a screen.
@@Motorcarnut
@garrettgerland4553 also have to double check his work if all that you told me was done. I thought you did the work? So who knows what they did or didn’t do?
I did all the work. Going to check it one more time! Got a nice camshaft from the junkyard this morning and it looks perfect. Thanks for the replies@@Motorcarnut
Out of curiosity, did you end up finding out what the exact issue was? I was a similar issue on my 2010 CC with the P0011. Vehicle runs completely fine with no misfires or anything. @@garrettgerland4553
EURO CRAP!
Bottom line, any vehicle has to be properly maintained.
@@Motorcarnut That still doesn't change the fact it's EURO CRAP!... I've been a mechanic 42yrs & I refuse to work on 90% of the euro crap I see.
@preston963 Lol, I hear you, but money is money. If I’m fixing a Fiat or Ferrari, doesn’t matter to me.
