2011 3.5L Ecoboost Engine Code P0016

Question

2011 F150 3.5L Ecoboost. Started engine and it threw code P0016 & P0175. I cleared the codes. Next morning P0016 came back. Crankshaft position - Camshaft position correlation - Bank 1 Sensor A. My timing chain and phasers were replaced March of 2017 under warranty due to rattle upon startup. Is this a sensor fault or could it be due to timing off? (ie. Water pump play?) No over heating issues.

Answer 1

HI there

It is possible it's a mechanical timing error. Its' also possible the truck is low on oil, so I would check there first and of course one of the sensors could be bad. Here is some more info on the code.
