Hi All,

Long story short,

I changed my timing belt, it was fine
the continental tensioner failed (could hear slapping)
Took off the axle and such to use the crank lock, and the timing cover enough to get the tensioner in and out.

I thought I had it lined up, I was really close(it can drive but its not the same) but i wasn't perfect even though the cam gear lock worked.

So do I
A)try the same way as I did again
B)Take off the valve cover, do the same thing + cam locks
C)Just do the thing start to finish (i hate the unkeyed crank)
D) something else?

Thursday will be the day. I appreciate all opinions.

did you run the calibration at the end of the procedure?
  1. After completing the repairs, perform the Misfire Monitor Neutral Profile Correction procedure.

use forscan. 5 min. needs to be done. having the timing belt that much off is compensated for by the vvt system.

yes i did, took me forever to get it up to 80
got codes p0011
p0016
p0688

constantly getting p0016, i changed crank sensor as i may have pulled on the old one with an OEM one before i did the new neutral profile correction

car lacks power and the idle is either low or going up and down
