hey folks i've been having this huge problem, and im just fed up with it. here's the story, i bought an lsvtec eg from a buddy of mine and it ran great for the first week. all the way up until i put in a an obd1 p28 with type r mapping in it. my car, ever since i got it was runninig a an obd1 p72. ever since the day i test drove my friends p28, my car has been feeling like crap. i only ran the p28 for 10 minutes, and put my p72 back in. after that, the o2 sensor cel and knock sensor cel code went on. i replaced the o2 sensor and went ahead and ordered an ecu off of phearable.net that would disable the knock sensor issue. the o2 sensor light went away, and the ecu just came today. HERE'S MY PROBLEM!!!

NOW there's a new damn code, and it's code 22. "VTEC Pressure Valve." i did a couple of searches but have drawn a damn blank. can ANY of you guru's out here be able to help me and my situation? i'm fed up with my car running like a damn LS...no vtec is really f-ing me up bad...but anyways, anyone know what to do next????

 

bump, really need some help.

 

Check that you have oil, make sure its wired up correctly, and then check if the screen is cleaned. If all those dont work get a new sensor or ecu.

 

ok, update.

*drove to work and valve cover started ticking as i accelarate.

*on the odometer, the "check oil" light comes on occasionally and shuts off.

whats the problem?

Luserkid, what does it mean to have it wired correctly? and what screen needs to be cleaned??? thanks, really appreciate the help!!!

If thats true then dont drive the car anymore until you put some oil in there. If theres oil, get an oil pressure gauge and see what it reads if its low then look into a new oil pump.

 

also, i recently switched to mobil 1 synthetic 10w-30 blend. its been burning it like CRAZY though!!! wtf is going on with my car?!?!?!

 

can anyone please help?

 

ok...car was ticking ever since yesterday. drove total of about 30 miles and now this morning while driving to class, it died. everything on the car works, electricity, etc. but the car wont turn over and start up. WHATS THE PROBLEM!??! I broke something in the internals eh???

 

BUMP! I NEED SOME HELP!

 

you heard a ticking noise, and it just shut out of no where?

not trying to scare you or anything but I think you blew your motor.

right before i blew my motor, i heard a ticking sound and it also died out of nowhere.

 

omfg. please don't let that be it. think i should need to take it to a specialist?
