The electric valvetronic motor was first on normally-aspirated engines but is now common on the turbocharged vehicles as well. It is responsible for actuating an eccentric shaft that adjusts intake valve lift. The motor itself is pretty reliable and does not fail too often.
Symptoms of a Bad VVT Motor: 1. EML light on ? yellow light and car warns to drive moderately and have engine checked; 2. Car loses power ? in limp mode; 3. Heavy on fuel; 4. Symptoms occur intermittently until car cuts off or refuses to start; 5. ?valvetronic servo motor? faults; 6. ?eccentric shaft sensor? faults ? in more extreme conditions and usually cancels out once the VVT motor is fitted.
