What does intake valve control solenoid do?

What does intake valve control solenoid do?

The Intake Valve Control Solenoid uses oil pressure and an electrical solenoid to control the position of the exhaust valve. Newer vehicles are equipped with variable valve timing (VVT).

Where is the p0028 code on a Subaru Outback?

Fruit Flies Like a Banana! Oil level and leaks around the variable valve lift solenoids or pressure sensor switches have been seen before as causes of the P0028 code, as has been noted above. The code is for bank 2. The related solenoid and switch are at the front of the left side head and easily checked for oil leaks.

What causes a p0028 code on a valve lift?

Oil level and leaks around the variable valve lift solenoids or pressure sensor switches have been seen before as causes of the P0028 code, as has been noted above. The code is for bank 2. The related solenoid and switch are at the front of the left side head and easily checked for oil leaks.

What does the p0028 OBD-II generic code mean?

What the P0028 code means P0028 is the OBD-II generic code indicating the engine control module (ECM) has determined that the variable valve lift for the intake valves for bank 2 will not engage. What causes the P0028 code? The ECM activates the intake valve solenoid for bank 2, but the valve lift mechanism did not change.

What is the fault code on a Subaru Impreza?

In this video we discuss a common Subaru fault code associated with variable valve lift systems on the 2.5L engines. This code is common across 2006-2011 Subaru Foresters, Impreza, Outback and Legacy vehicles equipped with the 2.5L engine. P0026 and P0028 indicate a fault in the VVL circuit.

What does a minor trouble code on a Subaru do?

On newer cars, even a ‘minor’ trouble code is programmed to disable cruise and traction control so, it isn’t unusual to have a CEL and 2-3 other lights on. I have had spurious codes set in both my soobs. One was related to a bad cell in the battery. The other is still a mystery.

How long does the p0028 code stay in memory?

In this regard, if in the next three drive cycles no faults had been detected (e.g. if the P0028 was a single “event”), the CEL would have gone out on its own and the cruise control restored, while the trouble code itself would have remained in memory for up to 40 drive cycles. This might have been useful for the dealer.
