04 f150 lariat screw 5.4l 3v rough idling/knocking? Etc
First MIL I got was
P0340 and P0012
Along with engine noise and rough idling. Even a few stalls.
I unplugged VCT solenoids and idle was normal and less noise for a short period of time. Then I got hit with these:
Stored Codes:
P0010 - A Camshaft Position Actuator Circuit / Open Bank 1 (because solenoid was unplugged)
P0012 - A Camshaft Position Timing Over-Retarded Bank 1
P0020 - A Camshaft Position Actuator Circuit / Open Bank 2 (because solenoid was unplugged)
P0340 - Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Bank 1 or Single Sensor
And these Pending codes:
P0303 - Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected
P0316 - Engine Misfire Detected on Startup (First 1000 Revolutions)
P000E - Fuel Volume Regulator Control Exceeded Learning Limit
Cleared all these, replaced VCT solenoid bank 1, cleaned throttle body and intake, and now after a short test-drive showing these codes, plus a "new" loud engine noise (knock?), almost sounds like a slapping. If there were actual internal knock wouldn't a different DTC get thrown?
Stored: P0340
Pending: P0012
