This has been a nightmare for me as my mechanic used gasket to apply on the o ring before putting it back as the o ring wasn't enough to stop an oil leak. Now I can't remove said part again as it wouldn't move at all
That's a rubbish move by the mechanic. Depending on the car, the leverage method may work, if it's a Honda, it's a different story as the VTC solenoid is usually recessed. I rather use a long needle plier for those.
Hello there. Im your new fan 😅 can you please make tutorial on how to use xtool to check ecu or tampered milage. I ordered mine due to your videos.
Thanks for following! 😃
I'll look into your request.
I see you've mastered the art of not creating more problems than you were there to fix 😂😂.
The gymnastics required to dodge traps like this....
😂😂😂
Not being desperate is key.
Thank you 🎩
You're welcome!

What symptoms do you expect with such clogged solenoid.
VVT solenoid issues gives rise to a CEL and the car usually enters limp mode; won't rev beyond 3000RPM. Can also lead to mechanical engine noise.
