hi all

on my 2000 c4

when cold starting all seems fine

as engine warms durametric shows bank 1 camshaft deviation slowly rises 1-13 degrees slowly

bank 2 stays at 0

can anybody tell me if this means the cam is actually 13 degrees out or is it the dme trying to compensate foe a failed component

or is it something different or worse

please can somebody help me in simple terms please

regards dave

hi all

im having a nightmare right now and really need some answers

the p1341 code has come but im confused

using durametric system reads as follows

at start up cam 1 angle is at 13 degrees then goes down to 0 and when warm actual values are as follows

cam angle bank 1 @ 0.00 /0.5 fluctuates

cam angle bamk 2 @ 0 dosent move at all

cam deviation bank 1 @ 12/14 fluctuates

cam deviation bank 2 @ 0 dosent move at all

i use my car every day and she has just gone through 130,000 miles and is still strong i love her very much shes my dream machine

please help regards dave

hi

good luck for you and your family

its only a matter of time before you get another 911 i can feel it

regards dave

hi all again

i couldnt think of anything else to call the thing i thought plastic porker or lady smile giver

so iv now done 200 miles and the flat spot is definately gone :D

although iv now got the p1341 cam actuator virus so i think im going to check that out at the weekend

does anybody have idiot proof directions to check the wires colours volts etc i have a good multimeter and a sense of humor so any help would be great :renntech:

i love my 2000 c4 aero kitted beast its got 130,000 as of yesturday iv done loads of work on her including a clutch so im handy but im no expert

push from the rear and repeat until delirious

regards dave

hi all thanx for the replies

i have the durametric and it didnt show any new codes so i cleaned the maf and throttle body and it now works perfectly although i have a new problem

i tried an old trick that i used to use when cleaning parts back in the day

find a smallish glass that the maf fits into

use the cleaner with straw and spray clean the maf allowing the cleaner to fall into the glass

when the glass is half full put the maf in sensor down

put the straw into the cleaner and continue to spray energising the fluid and createing bubbles etc

fill the glass to above the maf

then heres the genius part cable tie a vibrating item like a razor or ladies fun item and wait 10 mins and hey presto the cleanest maf you have ever seen and not a q tip in sight and no danger of damagimg your maf

towel dry on kitchen roll the refit and enjoy fresh new feeling engine

im quite happy to do the same to anybodies maf if you need it

regards dave

hi

i have the same tyre size and found the reduceing the pressure on the fronts to 32psi solved the front end a treat it now feels awesome

hope that helps

hi this is my first question although iv used this site for ages as it seems there are a lot on superb members

please help me with this one problem

2000 c4 with m9604 engine

after upchangeing at around 5500rpm regular change the motor feels realy flat and picks up slowly then seems ok again

if i do hard change at 7000rpm the point of flat is bypassed and the car pulls as normal

there is no flat spot in gear ie through the revs from 3-7000 although it seems power is down a little from before also the idle is a little rough

i suspect that the fuel filter is blocked or some fuel problem or maybe im miles away

i changed the air filter recently should i have d/c battery so the management learns as the old filter was a disgrace

iv changed the plugs ran injector cleaner through not fixed though please help :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
