bouckarooo

I took the vtec silenoid off to make sure it was clean and receiving oil but its still not working. What else could b wrong with it?

Tee-Dot

Have you checked the vtec reservoir?

Yes yes, we know bouk.....Vtech fluid is made of Japanese tears. Sorry, your Canadian tears aren't worth ****. Go bother the North Koreans, maybe they can use it.


God we are such assholes.

Well, it could be the level of your oil. Have you checked your motor oil?
Do you have a check engine light?

KraserK

Rofl can't stop laughing at that one might be worth a sig. Service your damn car damnit and look after it.

Make sure the car is warmed up to the proper level as well

Tee-Dot

@ disrespectful cunts.

Maybe all the cunts around here think you're not worth their time, since you can't seem to post any info other than "it doesn't work".

STFU GGF if you are calling me direspectful . But yeah you might want to check it out. I recon the easy way out man is to take it to a well known mechanic

Hey now, I tried helping even without knowing what the hell is wrong with your car. This is the last time I try to help. Talk about disrespectful cunts, we can't help you if you don't tell us wtf is wrong in the first place. We are not bloody mind readers.

As I said, your motor oil level can disable the VTEC from kicking in. check it after it's sat overnight.

I think we need a more detailed description of EXACTLY whats happening, and how you know it's not operable.

KraserK

I'm not against asians but I have doubts about alot of their servicing techniques as I have experienced in the last couple of days at the shop sigh......... JDM ninja kind of gives it away wink wink :|

jdm.ninja

hahaa yea im half japanese lol. ummm well detailed problems. none really. theres no oil leaks or anything vtec just isnt working. ummm.....mayb the silenoid needs replacing idk? this 5th gen is my first car to b honest.

jimnissan

can you rev the car past 6500? The factor ECU wont let you rev the car to 7400 on the low side of the cam.
oil presure, engine temp and some other factors have to be in/on spec to allow the vtec to switch over.
did you install any after market elect. I.E. VTEC controller or something that might be getting in the way of the factor systems

jimnissan

we need to know why you have come to this determination that your VTEC is not working.

and be detailed or you will get neg comments instead of useful advise
