no noticable loss in power, no issues with idle - though i am nervous this may be related to the known CAM issue requiring pinning of the camshaft



any thoughts/feedback/experience?

thx in advance

My 2009 had this issue.. supposedly it's a known problem with some of the turbos. Ended up being something like $9000 to fix.... but my car was CPO'd and they took care of it at the dealership.

The engine had to come out of the car and the cams replaced from what I remember.

Again, this was my experience.. I didn't have any other signs of problems either... my car had 5k miles on it when it happened.

I had the camshaft replacement deal done under warranty luckily ,my cell code started with P0021 cam bank 2 so hopefully you have something else going on.

Hey dudebro, hope all is good. I don't think that specific code is directed towards the camshaft itself; you should have your local tech swap the cam position sensors around and trace it. good luck!!!!
