Default Got a code today...

pulled the code with my scanner and it says P0151. I get one source telling me O2 sensor and another saying VVT bank 2. I am already having a VVT issue at start up until the oil pressure builds up and then the clicking dissapears. I'm getting thicker oil at oil change, but need to make sure its this code setting and not an 02 sensor. Thanks guys. Merry CHristmas.

pP0151 is the b bank upstream, best way is to reset and see if it comes back...they are a kind of service item in my book as they wear out like a sparkplug being in a volatile environment.

I will probably have to replace them all then. It usually throws it when I leave it running and put gas in it. Then it will run kinda crappy and throw that code up at least once a month and its always after I get gas. If I turn it off and get gas...then it doesns't want to crank unless I floor it... love this car but it has weird quirks lol
