Consumer Description

VEHICLE HAS 55000 MILES AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. IN SCANNING THE CAR I WAS TOLD THAT P0010 THE INTAKE POSITIONS ACTUATOR CIRCUIT AND P0013 EXHAUST CAMSHAFT POSITION ACTUATOR CIRCUIT NEEDED TO BE SERVICED TO THE TUNE OF BETWEEN 1200.00 AND 1500.00 DOLLARS WHICH IS NORMAL FOR THESE CARS I. THINK THIS IS BS I HAVE OIL CHANGED EVERY 2000 MILES OR 3 MONTHS WITH CASTROL DEXOS 5W30 AND LUCAS OIL STABILIZER. SOUNDS LIKE THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BY YHE MANUFACTURER.
