First off I take it you didn't read my original post but ill help you. "If anything one of the VVTI came gears are damaged. Maybe you are using thicker oil then recommended and debre is in your oil blocking the passages" never did I say the oil caused the issue. The oil can have debree in it which I was implying thicker oil can cause slower flow threw the screen mesh filter for the VVTI. But in reality I would assume its a faulty gear. All we can do is assume things because we do not have the car hooked up to a scan tool to truly diagnose the vehicle.
