Fairtax4me Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Timing belt was replaced at 100k? What about the idlers and the tensioner? Did you clear the codes to see if they come back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 I've had a bad battery set those codes and throw my WRX into limp mode. reset and see if/how quickly the codes come back. Also, make darn certain your engine oil system is in top shape. Double check battery and charging system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacy603 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 I cleared the code and Took her for a 50 mile ride I got on the high way and opened her up and it sounded like the valves fluttered at 4,500 rpm and the code came back and went in to limp as for the timing it looks all about right for the mileage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Valve flutter? Not gonna happen on these. Timing is jumped or the pressure control solenoids or the oil ports for the AVCS are plugged up and the camshaft actuators can't adjust properly. Pull the timing covers and double check timing.
