I just recently got a jdm swap. The car runs fine but I will say that it shakes a bit on idle. I ordered new 4 VVT valves for the car. I tried putting my old ones from my old car but it still gets the same engine lights. I checked the VVT correlation values on a scanner and they read over 100. The values were both 113 and never moved. I just wonder if this is common.

Hi,

The codes are all related to camshaft/crankshaft correlation issues. I looked through each one and other than a different bank or cam, the tests are very similar. So, I attached the diagnostics below for the P0016. Take a look through the diagnostics and let me know if you are comfortable performing them or if this is something you have already done.

Let me know.
