Thank you for your beautiful video. Is the bank one A and B sensor both the same for the intake and exhaust? Bank 1&2

[@cobravids]

Yes, I believe that they are the same part. Thanks for watching.

Just got my turbos replaced, I have the codes p0012, p0024 and p0299. Any help or advice?

[@cobravids]

Looks like it all had to do with the turbos. If you just had them replaced, I would return to who did the work in order to test for failures. I have read that if these turbos are not properly installed, oil won't pump up as it needs and will cause premature failure. The one code involves your camshaft. This could be the timing solenoid or even the exhaust cam gear ring, which has been known to spin on the camshaft. It's a flaw in the design that causes this loose ring. Look for major oil leaks. Check your intercooler tubes for openings or cracks. I would want to do some more diagnostic on the turbos to confirm that they are not the cause.

@@cobravidsthanks for the fast response I appreciate it. I’m dropping it off at a different that specializes in 3.5 ecoboosts and gonna have them go thru the turbo job etc. if they find something wrong with the turbos I’ll then bring it to the shop that installed them. Hoping its nothing huge

[@user-mg6mb4iz1y]

Could it be my o2 sensor if that’s what is popping up on the computer

[@cobravids]

This code can be a few things. The most common thing I found in my research is the signal "gear" that is on this camshaft breaks loose and spins freely. Throwing off the computer. In my case, it was a dirty, if not malfunctioning sensor. Have you removed that sensor and looked at it? If anything an aftermarket replacement is 20.00. If it still has this issue, then you need to look at that signal gear inside the valve cover. I did not read anything to indicate o2 sensors. But I'm not saying it couldnt be a problem. I just didn't find that information. O2 sensors usually give a code that indicates lean or rich, or even o2 sensors directly. O2 sensors or catalytic issues can sometimes throw a P0420

Also come back anytime for questions or advice. I am here to help.

Any tips for ecoboost to keep the life of it going ? :)

[@cobravids]

Yes! One important thing to do is keep your oil clean. The turbos in this truck, and other turbo I'm sure does not do well with dirty oil. If you find any oil leaks be sure to repair them and make sure it's not coming from turbo oil supply lines. A dry turbo is a dead turbo. Other than that just keep it lubed and replace things as they begin to show the signs.

[@cheizaguirre5494]

@@cobravids thanks !

[@desireeacres2076]

So there was nothing In the video about p0299, turbo under pressure, just cam sensor

[@cobravids]

You are correct. That shaft sensor causes the error code with the turbo. The research we found pointed to it. After we cleaned it the codes cleared up and has not come back. Thanks for the comment. Be safe.

[@cobravids]

Also, I'm not saying that is the ONLY issue that can cause it just one of.

Are both the seniors the same for A&B Bank 1 thank you in advance ​@@cobravids
