VTEC not working? ok i have a EX 2002 coupe and i was racing last night and my VTEC never kicked in? this happen to some of you people? |
I'm not touching this subject with a 10 foot pole.:_please: |
you broke it :eek: |
okay i read a thread on this over on clubsi a long time ago. apparently when you first crank up the car it takes so long for the vtec to start working....i guess so you dont drive the hell out of your car 24/7. Oh and by the way, you only barely feel vtec kick in on our cars.....and thats only when you're really concentrating on it. |

Your car will still redline, but simply using the low cam profile. If there is something wrong with the VTEC solenoid the high cam profile won't kick in. |
leave it to the PW |

ok for one dude, if your civic is stock, you will barely hear your vtec, it will sound kinda like a louder breathing noise in your engine since ours are so damn quiet, you not gonna hear any loud thunder unless you get a DOHC vtec engine, only then will you experience any vtec, and after you drive the DOHC car, then youll notice the vtec in your car with some mods of course, i/h/e/p, now START SEARCHING, [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-nono.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-nono.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-nono.gif[/IMG]NEWBIES:tdown: |
[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] vtec broke?? [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] i thought our vtec was for fuel consumption[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] |
SaiyanMatador, you're calling them Newbies? Aren't you the one who said that the Celica is as heavy as a "Rhinocerous' sack?" When in reality, the GT comes in at 2,425 lbs. (thats lighter than our 'vics)...which you happen to own. Oh and you beat those "SLOW AS SHIT" Celica GT-Ss too dont ya? I may not be an expert, but at least I dont talk trash like that. I hope you were high when you made those statements :tdown: |
Oh and guys...doesn't the check-engine-light come on if your VTEC solenoid were to fail or stick? |

I read the topic and first thing that came to mind was ralph Wiggums " I think I broke my wookie" line lol.. On a side note. If your engine was not warm vtec would not engage. I'd suggest instead of asking for help here you go to your dealership, especially if your car is still under warranty. |
Why would he go all the way to the dealership to ask a question when he could take 5 mins to ask you guys???? Seemed like a simple enough answer. I mean, if it doesn't kick in when at temp, then he needs to go to the dealer, but till then, it makes total sense just to ask on here IMO |
