c. Apply liquid gasket to the positions shown. Refer to 

GI-22, "Rec-

ommended Chemical Products and Sealants"

.

d. Install valve timing control cover.

• Tighten the bolts to specification in the numerical order as

shown.

9. Check and adjust valve clearances. Refer to 

EM-21, "Camshaft valve clearance"

.

10. Install camshaft position sensor bracket.
a. Apply liquid gasket to camshaft position sensor bracket as

shown. 

CAUTION:

• Use Genuine Silicone RTV Sealant, or equivalent. Refer to

GI-22, "Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants"

.

• After installation be sure to wipe off excessive liquid gas-

ket leaking from part (B).

• Installation should be done within 5 minutes after apply-

ing liquid gasket.

• Do not fill the engine with engine oil for at least 30 minutes after the components are installed to

allow the liquid gasket to cure.

b. Tighten bolts to specification in numerical order shown.

WARNING:

Check when engine is cold so as to prevent burns from any splashing engine oil.

CAUTION:

Perform this inspection only when DTC P0011, P0014, P052A, P052B is detected in self-diagnostic

results of CONSULT and it is directed according to inspection procedure of EC section. 
1. Check engine oil level and adjust oil level as necessary. Refer to 

LU-7, "Inspection"

.

2. Remove the intake valve timing intermediate lock control solenoid valve, intake valve timing control sole-

noid valve, and exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to 

EM-79, "Intake Valve Timing Interme-

diate Lock Control Solenoid Valve, Intake Valve Timing Control Solenoid Valve, and Exhaust Valve Timing

Control Solenoid Valve"

.

3. Perform the following procedure to prevent the engine from being unintentionally started while checking.
a. Release fuel pressure. Refer to 

EC-147, "Work Procedure"

.

b. Disconnect injector harness connectors.
4. Crank engine, and then make sure that engine oil comes out of

the valve timing control cover oil holes (A). End cranking after

checking.

WARNING:

Be careful not to touch rotating parts (drive belt, crankshaft

pulley, etc.).

CAUTION:

• Engine oil may squirt from intake valve timing intermedi-

ate lock control solenoid valve, intake valve timing control

solenoid valve, exhaust valve timing control solenoid

valve installation holes during cranking. Use a shop cloth

to prevent engine oil from splashing on worker, engine

components and vehicle. 

• Do not allow engine oil to get on rubber components such as drive belts or engine mount insula-

tors. Immediately wipe off any splashed engine oil.

5. If engine oil does not come out from valve timing control cover oil holes (A), diagnose problem in lubrica-

tion circuit such as dirty oil groove between oil strainer and intake valve timing intermediate lock control

solenoid valve, intake valve timing control solenoid valve, or exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve.

Refer to 

LU-5, "Engine Lubrication System"

.

a. Remove components between intake valve timing intermediate lock control solenoid valve, intake valve

timing control solenoid valve, exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve and camshaft sprocket (INT) or

camshaft sprocket (EXH), (if necessary) and then check each oil groove for clogging.

b. Clean oil groove if necessary. Refer to 

LU-5, "Engine Lubrication System"

.

6. After inspection, install the remaining components in the reverse order of removal.
