ok guys got an update just so if anyone runs into this problem its here,
first up i was wrong about plugs, leads, they tested well within specs, however i have replaced the plugs regardless,
Now my ELM327 arrived today and i have run tests and the results are as follows:
diagnostics code PCM0116 fault code (points to temp sender, however this is not faulty)
live data streaming shows CMP_F Fault Yes (points to camshaft position sensor is faulty)
now before i fork out $300 on a new
CMP i am getting my mate whos xr8 has a faulty
CMP and we have not replaced it yet, so i will run the same tests on his and hopefully we get the same result.
I will update when i am sure this is the problem.
Note: i have no squeals or noises from the
CMP which is why i am hesitant as all reports of failure of the
CMP i have heard resulted in squeaking/squealing
