David N Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 Thanks so much Thomas - P1349 VVT System Malfunction (Bank 1b) blocked oil control valve filter - Do you also have the picture location of this "Oil Control Valve Filter". Thanks. Dav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chococat Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Actually it could be 1) filter 2) oil control valves 3) wiring 4) ECM. My mechanic said ECM. I disagreed. Took my car home. I started with filter. (10 min job) They were clean. Replaced the OCVs. (I believe in doing things in pairs) (10 min job). Code went away. HOWEVER, bank 2 is tricky & my wire casing are brittle in areas, so my housing connecter pulled away from the wires a little, so while my P1354 (bank 1) went away, I sprung a new P1359 (bank 2). The P1354 for the OCV. The P1359 for ME was wiring. The P1354 caused my timing to advance wrong on one bank & the car lurched, smoked, etc. The P1359 causes no problems whatsoever except an engine light. I hope this helps. ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
