Working in my friends 05 Chrysler 300c hemmi

[Jonathan]

the car runs ok most of the time.
But it has code P0016 witch means basically that the CAM & CRANK sensor aren’t coordinating.
We have replaced both sensors already and code keeps coming back. Another friend suggested a timing issue.
Is it possible for the timing chain to jump a tooth?
Or maybe that the chain tension-er is going bad and timing is been effected?
I don’t hear any chain slap so I didn’t think so.
ANY IDEAS BEFORE I START TARRING IT APART TO LOOK AT THE CHAIN?

:sick:

I’m not sure if i’m going to be any help but if the timing jumped a tooth then it would run like poop most of the time ( or in some cases one even run at all ) i don’t think it has anything to do with the timing it may have something to do with the chain being stretched. Another speculation is that it may have to do something with the computer ( if they arn’t coordinating) i’ve did some re-search and they said you may need to re-learn the computer of the car. I hope this helped.

yeah a stretched chain might be at fault, didnt think about the computer do! might try that first.

yeah I expect that out of a timing BELT not never out of timing CHAIN.
