Part Name Part Number Quantity Spark Plugs 12290-5PA-A01 4 REPAIR PROCEDURE A 1. In some cases, the misfire DTCs may return. If this happens, inspect the spark plugs. • If the spark plugs are OK, the procedure is complete. Continue with normal troubleshooting. • If the spark plugs are fouled, go to step 2. 2. Replace the spark plugs per service information and check for stored DTCs. NOTE Make sure to write down the stored DTCs on the R.O. • If the applicable DTCs do not return, the procedure is complete. • If the applicable DTCs return, this bulletin does not apply. Continue with normal troubleshooting. Page 3 of 12 REPAIR PROCEDURE B If there is a whirling noise coming from the engine, follow the procedure below. 1. Warm up the engine by increasing the engine speed to 3,000 rpm for two fan cycles. 2. After the warm-up procedure is completed, let the car return to idle for 10 seconds. 3. After 10 seconds, slowly increase the engine speed up to 3500 rpm (this should take at least 20 seconds). 4. Once the engine speed reaches 3500 rpm, release the accelerator pedal and let the engine speed return to idle. 5. With the hood closed and inside the cabin, compare the audio file here to the noise heard. • If the noise is similar, continue to step 6. • If the noise is not similar, this bulletin does not apply. Continue with normal system troubleshooting. 6. Remove the cylinder head cover. See service information for additional instructions. 7. Compare the appearance of the camshaft lobes to the photo below. • If the camshafts appear similar to the no good photo, go to step 8. • If the camshafts appear similar to the good photo, this bulletin does not apply. Continue with normal system troubleshooting. 8. Take a photo of the cam lobe, then follow the directions in the parts catalog when ordering the necessary parts. NOTE Please send photos of failed camshafts to [email protected] to receive approval and release parts.
