MODERATEB Camshaft Position - Timing Over-Advanced or System Performance (Bank 1)
What this code means
B Camshaft Position - Timing Over-Advanced or System Performance (Bank 1). This family covers the measurement of incoming air and injected fuel, together with the emission devices attached to them. A fault here distorts the mixture the engine burns, which costs fuel and raises emissions.
How to read this code
- PPowertrain
- 0standardised code
- 0Fuel and air metering, auxiliary emission controls
- 14P0014
The letter P names the system: Powertrain. The digit 0 that follows marks a standardised code, shared by all manufacturers code. The next digit, 0, locates the fault: fuel and air metering, auxiliary emission controls.
What to do
Have it checked this week. The car remains usable, but the fault will not clear itself and will fail the roadworthiness test.
Clearing a code switches the light off but repairs nothing: if the fault remains, the code comes back.
