Hey Corey. I have a 2012 Chevy volt that randomly lost power going down the road. I took it to the dealership and they replaced the 12v battery and said that they think the reason was the alternator stator shorted and fried the 12v battery. But the car would still turn on it just wouldn’t drive before I took it over there. The code it is throwing up now is “P0C17”. Would changing the sensor fix this problem? Any help would be much appreciated and thanks for the video.

WARNING! READ THIS BEFORE GOING OFF THIS VIDEO!! Just a heads up…. That “pop” you were hearing was not your cams or phasers…. That “popping” noise is your chain skipping down lower due to bad Hydraulic tensioner(s) and or worn sprockets. If you look, your cams weren’t doing anything to make any noise. There’s nothing they can do to make a popping noise like that….To anyone that hears this noise, listen closely or use a stethoscope and you will hear that the noise is coming from down lower and when you remove the front cover go a head and spin tue engine clockwise again and you will see the chain slip…. I’ve done a ton of these and 99 percent of the time you will watch the chain slip on the bottom gear. This isn’t anything negative to the content creator as he’s trying to help…. When doing this job since you’re this deep replace all of the tensioners, sprockets, chains oil pump and if needed valves and valve seals.

Marcel Grundmann 0 seconds ago Its true, breathing is a problem, so solution is...drill trough the pcv valve (4mm) on the right rockercover ( remove it before you do it!) remove the plastic hose with the t piece connecting the pcv to the plenum chamber. remove the lh rockercover breather going to the air intake. Now slowly heat up the plastic hose at the t piece and remove the t piece. Rh Rockercover back on. clip the hose back on the drilled out pcv connector, use a silicone hose piece and the old plastic hose to extend the pcv hose with the original removed plastic hose, it routes along the back of the engine just like before, just no t piece, ending up parallel to rh rockercover breather, cut rh rockercover breather and fit with careful heat the t piece, connect hose back to air intake . clip it all back into the hose supports. block the plenum chamber inlets, done.... no more breathing problems, looks factory, cant tell the difference, huge difference in engine cleanliness, however the throttle body does get a bit dirty over time and should just be wiped out every second service, these engine always consume some oil, checks and regular services are a must.... any questions or pictures contact Boat and Bumper.... Humpty doo..... hope that helps

Hi corey, are u sure about the stage 2 timing removing all the chains and not doing it in two stages ,my mechanic done it all in one stage ,stage 2 now i have multiple misfires and he says it was done corectly which doesn't make sense as the car was running fine before it, exept for a code that came up a p0008 .

DAMN! That engine & Cam-phasers look awfully varnished in the Cam-Valleys!! Dear Lord...... On my 2015 LTZ (70,000 mi now), I've added a Cup of Seafoam to my Oil about 500 miles before I get it changed. ALWAYS Mobil-1. NEVER more than 5,000 mile intervals either! My baby runs smooth & STRONG. Also use SF in the gas once a month. Used regularly over time, SF really helps keep things clean in an engine like an LFX. Regular use will help you AVOID issues like this in the first place!!!

Yea do yourself a favor and replace all cam phasers and oil pump. It’s an extra 300 but better than rebuying everything all over again. Learn from me, my cloyes set lasted 15k because of a bad phaser. Broken the yellow plastic guide on bank 1 and bent all intake valves. 1200 later I’m up and running again all because of a 67 dollar cam phaser.
