Po016 code

Good evening,

Yep, it can. The code is for cam/crank correlation which means it sees a miss-alignment of the belt.

I would verify the timing marks and reset it correctly. then the code should go away.

P0016
Descriptor
Crankshaft Position-Camshaft Position Correlation
Probable Causes
Continuously Variable Valve Timing (CVVT)
Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKPS), Camshaft Position Sensor (CMPS)
Oil Contamination or Oil Path Clogged
Oil Control Valve (OCV)
Poor Connection
Power-train Control Module (PCM)

Thanks, I let you know after the weekend.

You are welcome.

We are always glad to help.

The light goes out sometime by it self only to reappear later. Doesn't make since. If the timing was off wouldn't it stay on?

And I've had a purge valve solenoid light. Replaced that and crank sensor light. Replaced that. Now I have the po016 code

You are throwing parts at it without confirming any failures.

I would back up and start with the timing belt and verify the marks. You are most likely going to find it is off by one or more teeth.

The belt was off one tooth. It runs good with no check engine light.
Thanks

You are welcome. Just as we thought.

Always glad to help.
