I GOT A CODE P1383 CAMSHAFT TIMING RETARDED.
IS THERE A FIX FOR THIS?
IS IT THE SENSOR?
OR SOMETHING ELSE?

Hi there,

This just may be a faulty sensor, but you will have to get the (V.T.C) Variable valve timing control unit inspected, this is attached to the front of the cam shaft and operated by engine oil pressure, it is something that a trained technician should inspect for you.
