Services Performed
- The technician advanced to level #2 testing, and he first consulted with the customer regarding the symptoms, and all the prior testing performed to the vehicle to determine why the vehicle has low power, and the check engine light comes on. The tech then hooked up his factory level scanner and he checked for codes and code P0087 Fuel Rail/System Pressure – Too Low (Bank 1). The tech then went into his scanner, and he set up the scanner recorder to record and monitor the fuel delivery system and he noticed that when he accelerated the engine, the power dropped way down. The tech then reviewed the scanner recorder information, and he noted that the desired high fuel pressure was 1232.5, psi, and the actual was only 76.8psi. The tech also performed extensive research and the camshafts lobes have been known to get worn down by the high pressure pump. The tech then performed extensive research, and as long as there is not excessive metal shavings in the engine/oil, there have been known cases where replacing the camshaft was an expectable repair. If the engine/oil system shows excessive metal shavings, the tech recommends a complete engine replacement.
