omg i’m dealing with this problem at this exact moment (2010 camry) THANK YOU SO MUCH! my car ALWAYS sounds like that clicking but has been louder with p012 code. my VVT had plastic parts stuck in it for some reason clogging it? sprayed it out but it gets clogged every now and then so there’s still plastic in there i’m just going to replace the solenoid. thank you guys so much!! timing couldn’t be any bit better
An OCV solenoid failed on my 2016 2grfe. Oil level was full and I change it myself every 5,000 miles with quality oil. The oil in the engine at that time only had 800 miles on it. Engine doesn't burn oil. Solenoid was clean as a whistle. In my case, my solenoid simply failed. Bought a new one and the car is back to normal.
Thank you for this info! My ‘06 Honda Element went into “limp mode” yesterday after I accelerated getting on the highway 😱 I was panicked. Was able to get over to the shoulder and after recovering from shaking, called AAA. Got towed to my mechanic who did the error check. Sure enough, it was the VVT Solenoid. Even tho I was 1K from needing an oil chg, he said my oil was on the low side. He explained what happens with low oil and the VVT. Of course it sounded like Greek 😂. I left my car with him and Googled VVT Solenoid. Watching this video explaining how it all works - Okay I get it now! 💡
Just to inform everyone. Even if that part does click when you put power to it, it does not mean its any good. I found that out on my honda. Was having a gas cap light. I changed the vent solenoid. Tested the old part it did click but didn't turn off the light. The new part worked immediately.
Our car can’t get past 4000rpm while driving but parked it revs all the way no problem. Could the vvt solenoid be bad and is there greater oil pressure in the motor while under load from the transmission vs being parked Edit: it’s a Murano with CVT transmission

Sorry, but oil burning in an engine gives a bluish smoke. Black smoke is a rich mixture... it used to happen a lot on the old cars pre catalytic convertors.

Thumbs down on this one. Love your videos 1A Auto! But when I see one like this with the instructor shown speaking on a side view, it's just weird! What's the purpose of it? It's not that he is not cool but it's not about him otherwise I'd be watching on the facebook where all the cool people are. LoL

Great video. Should also mention vvt filter cleaning. Both go together.

Just solved this with my 2007 g35, code p0021 ! Replaced the vvt solenoid and now it’s all hunky dory!
i would HIGHLY recommend uploading all of your videos to rumble,brandnewtube,brighteon,andbitchute they’re missing how to content there.
What about the ticking noise what caused the solenoid to make the ticking noise did the noise went away after putting the new solenoid?
Thumbs up. Does the Tcc solenoid circuit make it go into limp mode?
FIRE VIDEO 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Recently installed a new VVT Selenoid but I can see oil leaking from the plastic tip of it. I guesses on why?
Our car can’t get past 4000rpm while driving but parked it revs all the way no problem. Could the vvt solenoid be bad and is there greater oil pressure in the motor while under load from the transmission vs being parked
Edit: it’s a Murano with CVT transmission
How may oil control valves are in a 2018 Subaru Impreza? I'm on the 3rd valve change in 8 months!?!?
P1110 code vvt bank 1 I cleaned it and the ticking stopped it also works I see the actuator doing its job but code came back
I replaced both vvt solonoid on my Hyundai Elantra still having same problem stalling condition.What else could problem be

Hello.

I have one question, please answer.

Thank you again.
It should be at the lower part of the engine, where the crank shaft would be.

I like how they give amazing information but they need to stop with this horrible acting. Kinda makes me not trust them. Just be real.
