it says its vtec pressure valve. how do i get rid of this code?

 

Do you have oil in the car?

 

yes but its due in like 300 miles

 

No i ment if you had enough oil in the car to run VTEC. Usually when people throw code 22 thats the reason. Check your oil and if its low then add some oil (or better yet just change the oil) and reset the ecu.

 

damn wtf theres like no oil on my dipstick

 

Time for that oil change man. Dont forget to reset your ecu as well.

If you want, most people just do it for 10-15 second

If you have an alarm though you might want to pull the ecu fuse under the hood so you dont **** with the alarm. That takes alot longer to reset that way.

 

oh aight that works for me

 

is there a reason y id be burning that much oil? i use full synthetic and it hasnt even been 3000 miles

 

You might not be burning oil.... unless if you see black smoke all the time then you are burning oil and that might be because of your rings.

Check around and see if you have leaks anywhere or anything like that.

 

well i guess im not buring oil, but y would there be like nothing in it. i thought full synthetic could last like 5000 miles

i did i dont see any

 

Put a quart of oil in the car, start the car and rev to about 3 or so and see if you see any black smoke coming out.

 

just did that ^^^ and i didnt see any smoke, but there was a very slight smell of something burning, i also noticed that my exhaust tip is like black. doesnt that mean im burning oil?

 

First car huh?

Black on the exhaust tip could just be exhaust passing through, like carbon or sult or such, nothing out of the ordinary. What motor is it anyway?

What exactly smells like its burning?

Do you do your oil changes yourself or go get it done? If you get it done do you check it when their done?

 

yup 1st car. well my friend said black tip means your burning oil but months after talkin to him bout cars i realized he thinks he know but he doesnt knoe ****, its a z6, it does kinda smell like oil burning but im not too sure, its been a while since i tried it. yea i do my own oil changes
