This 2017 Subaru BRZ had a major engine failure and after the replacement of the short block it has a P0014 and P000B code that keeps resetting.

Where does one find the info on how parts move and work like you explained. That insight and your spring test led to a diag here which is awesome. I have Alldata but I’m not sure it goes into that detail or not. Thanks for the great vid btw
Gracias por tu video me han ayudado muc
VVT phaser oil control valves can stick if the engine is overheated. Given the fact that there was previous engine failure… makes me suspect that. Or debris, like you said, also possible from engine failure.
Pentastar V6 engines are bad for this. They work great and I like em… but if you want trouble, just run em hard and then immediately turn the engine off without letting the heads cool down first. Stuck VVT control valves, collapsed lifters, dropped seats, all kinds of stuff gets cranky in em when you turn em off smoking hot. Just let your motor idle and cool down for a couple minutes, geez! Not that hard to do!
Sometimes the stuck valves will break free if you poke em, like you did here. Worth a shot, but I'm not sure about how long it'll stay working for. Maybe it's fine? If it was a piece of debris, it's moved on … to somewhere else.
Hi Jake can you do me a favor?
I would like to recommend something. Can you show how your connecting the topdon oscope or pico when you use it? I am a do it yourselfer and I have topdon smart scanner and I am fixing to add the oscope to my toolbox to take my diagnostics further. I learn allot watching you and would like to se more of how you connect and what you connect to when you troubleshooting with those two tools. Thanks
I think it will last.. do u think that could happen from different drivers and how ppl drive?
They should perform an engine oil cleaning service. I've had good luck using BG products
Its something about these japanies cars. Their self diagnostic sucks. Had little while a go Nissan murano. Turbo actuator was stuck. No codes and car was trying all the time use that but ut didnt move. That part allso had angle sensor but still no code regards that wasnt moving where car wanted it
❤❤❤❤❤
What great diag. Thanks
No it won't stay repaired. Your correct in thinking that there is debris in the VVT
Ivan would be proud! NPR!
At least until the phasers are replaced as a precaution…
Probably sealer debris that fell into the timing cover while cleaning. Those engines are held together with what seems like eight gallons of sealer.
I think you should change it. You never know if it might reoccur.
Isn’t the oil control valve part of the bolt that holds the phaser? If so the valve can be replaced without removing the cover.
cool diag Jake , yeah you got the magic touch Jake, it be fine , maybe worth changing oil and filter
The oil control valve is built into the bolt that holds the phaser , I had a similar problem on a merc W203 engine were the previous shop over torqued the bolt and stretched the valve , it was getting stuck only at operating engine temp
Great video Mr Jake .
I used to fallows voltage drop diag but unfortunately he is not longer posting videos .
I had same problem with nissan pathfinder v6 after a cylinder head job, had some junk stuck in vvt solenoid
