Just picked up the car from the dealer and drove it for 4 hours when the CEL came on and ended up being the P0017 camshaft/crankshift differential Bank 1 Sensor B fault code. Right now, looking like the camshaft actuator solenoid is the problem, but we'll see. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. The only upside is the fascinating dismantling of this work of art. The part is on backorder and there the car sits. I empathize, being a surgeon, as an implant I ordered for a patient was on 'back order' the other day. Fortunately, it showed up right away in time for the case. I hope the same happens with the part for my coche. More importantly, I hope this is really the cause for the CEL. Thought everyone might find this rare view of the 2010 GT3 interesting.

 

 

bit of a surprise to see on the '10 GT3...
good luck; hope it soon be roll out of the workshop ~~

 

Any chance you can say, "take it back, I don't want it and give me a new one"?

Wow. The soul of the machine laid bare.

 

They had to do a complete tear down to diagnose it was a solenoid??

 

so this was a 4 hour old brand new car? i really think i'd be trying to get my $$ back and into a new one. hope it turns out well.

 

How do you let the dealer tear down your 4 hour old GT3? I would be hottttttt! Hope everything works out for you.

 

Sorry to hear this... I hope they get it sorted quickly and show you respect.

 

Clarification: It is new to me. It was purchased with 4700 miles from P-Car dealer in So. Cal. I don't have it in CA anymore. Grrrrrrrrrr.

The local dealer tried their best to avoid dropping the engine. Swapped sensors, etc.

By the way, the lifters and cams are works of art.

Fingers are crossed.

 

As a physician also, (derm) these problems look more than skin deep! Big surgery. Yipe!

It makes us wonder what kind of 4,700 miles those So. Cal folks put on the car, and wonder if something in those miles contributes to the CEL... I would ask the dealer to pull the DME codes and check for surprises.

Sorry to hear that, hope all is well soon.
