VTEC failure!!!
VTEC failure!!!
Hi guys/girls, I need some help diagnosing why VTEC won't kick in. I have a p0600 code and camshaft position sensor code on bank A. I cleaned the VTEC solenoid and its still not hitting. Any opinions or help of any kind will be greatly appreciated. It has a slight tune to bump stock rev limiter to 8500 rpm. Its not kicking in at 6000 like it should and hits red line at 7800 now and acting boggy.

NO VTEC code at all? Then it shouldn't be a VTEC problem.
Fix the other codes first and see what happens.

Oh wait....EP3 = hatch with K20 engine........raised the rev limiter (DOH!)......cam code......what's the exact fault code number? I bet the chain has jumped time.
