All IMS failures aren't really "IMS Failures"
2fas4u replied to Jake Raby's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
Jake is right, I have this problem now the tensioner let go. When I heard this noise I turned the car off & restarted to I hear the sound again but better for a second or two. The engine started right up the second time but with noise, the infamous marbles in the can but louder sound (slightly masked by the supercharger) the oil ran out the engine I thought the ims was the culprit but there is some small parts on the tensioner plastic in the oil filter housing. and no oil where the ims and rms usually leak. Note the code was for the camshaft solenoid and not misfiring on any cylinders which leads me to believe the tensioner let go and not the chain by reason of the ims bearing which would had compromised the timing therefore not starting the second time. However nothing is sure until a complete tear down and rebuild from the crank which is in the near future. Just my .02 in to try & support the view of a very knowledgeable professional and I know he in no way needs it... -
Seems to be running lean and the computer is adjusting by going rich and at it's limit. Is this the only code. Possible causes intake air leak, maf. Mybe be a litlle more difficult fix ; possible bad injector, fuel pressure low, or fuel pump going south. I used to get this one on hard acceleration when my pump was going out (it also whined too). hope this helps try seach too. Maybe some better minds can chime and put you right on it hopefully, good luck
