C3522 Porsche 931 OBD Code

OBD/2 C3522 error code description and symptoms.

Variable Cam Timing Over-advanced (Bank 1) The comprehensive component monitor (CCM) monitors the VCT position for an over-advanced camshaft timing.
The test fails when the camshaft timing exceeds a maximum calibrated value or remains in an advanced position. Cam timing improperly set No oil flow to the VCT piston chamber Low oil pressure VCT solenoid valve stuck closed Camshaft advance mechanism binding (VCT unit) C3522 DTC is a check of the VCT unit.

Some systems require that the actuator has an adequate supply of brake fluid. Low brake fluid levels can mimic the symptoms of code C3522, so consult the manual to locate the brake fluid reservoir. Bear in mind that a low fluid level can set code C3522 on some applications, so make sure that on fluid operated systems the fluid level is up to the mark before starting an electrical diagnosis.

The OBDII system uses lf lamp high beam circuit short to battery a ownstream oxygen sensor to monitor the efficiency of the converter, and it should detect a drop in converter efficiency if the converter has been contaminated or is failing (ignition misfiring, leaky exhaust valves, and oil burning can all damage the converter). What you want to look lf lamp high beam circuit short to battery: Any conditions that might cause ignition misfire, an overly rich or lean fuel condition, or loss of compression. Use your OBD Express DIY to look at the oxygen sensor outputs, coolant temperature, airflow, calculated engine load, and inlet air temperature.

• Air fuel ratio (A/F) Sensor 1 Bank 1 harness is open or shorted
• Faulty variable valve timing (VVT)
• Faulty variable valve timing (VVT)

C3522 is a kind of Chassis Trouble Code Diagnosing chassis noises can be one of the most frustrating problems technicians face. Fortunately, manufacturers have engineered noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) diagnostic techniques and equipment to find the source of the noise.
