    further update. Drove about 40 miles since adding the full bottle of Lucas and havent gotten the code or traction light warnings since. looks like it is a good band aid for the situation.

    The saga of the p0011

    I agree, after my little experiment im thinking I may be losing pressure to the lifters causing the misfire, I think the lifters get their oil via the cam bearing passages.

    The saga of the p0011

    So my PCM to cam sensor signal was fine as was the 5v ref and lo ref. While at a stand still and activating the cmp test the engine will raise to a high idle and command the actuator from 0-50 degrees in 5 degree increments which is did fine. I took the truck out for a spin while watching the...

    The saga of the p0011

    For the sake of helping the next guy I’m gonna try to keep this thread informed until I have a fix or delete the vvt altogether and put a fun cam in it. I spoke to a buddy who’s a gm tech and he suggested I run a new 5v wire from the pcm to the cam sensor. He says these harnesses aren’t the best...

    The saga of the p0011

    I don’t think so, nothing is impossible but it’s a gates sprocket which isn’t a low quality part. I spoke to a buddy who’s a gm tech and he suggested I look at some things.

    Of that list the only thing that hasn’t been replaced is the chain itself

    The saga of the p0011

    It was off when I initially did it and immediately gave me a p0016 for cam crank correlation so I tore it back down and reset timing, no more correlation but the p0011 persists

    Yeah I don’t see the oil being the issue

    Also the misfires seem to only occur on bank 2 when they do occur.

    Tensioner is new and the chain did not seem stretched, was about the same ive seen on other LS engines.

    The saga of the p0011

    My escalade keeps throwing a p0011 vvt code and has a very slight intermit misfire. Ive replaced the cam sprocket/ actuator, bolt/valve, magnet, sensor, and timing cover harness in one shot but the code comes back. If im driving to the on the freeway for 60 miles it will come on and go off like...

    To update, I filler the gap between the reveal molding and the door itself with black silicone and no more noise.
