    Did you check the brake pads when you first noticed the pedal going to the floor? Or there's a chance you could have got a defective master cylinder.

    the rears adjusted properly? front calipers frozen will cause a low pedal cause your basically using just the rears or 1 front and both rears

    Maybe try clamping off the brake lines and see if it makes a difference.

    1. Is there any brake fluid leaking at any of the wheels?

    2. Is there brake fluid leaking at any of the lines or connections?

    3. Is the brake fluid level in the Master Cylinder dropping?

    4. Is the linkage properly attached at the pedal?

    5. Is the linkage properly attached to the Master Cylinder?

    6. Are you sure the air has been completely bled from the system.

    If the answer to 1, 2 and 3 are NO and the answer to 4, 5 and 6 are yes... Then the Master cylinder is defective.

    Well....... What was it.


    p022 Code: Camshaft Position "A" - Timing Over-Retarded (Bank 2)

    Retarded cam timing: With warm engine and engine speed of between 500 rpm and 4,000 rpm, all conditions (a), (b) and (c) met (2 trip detection logic)

    (a) Difference between target and actual intake valve timings more than 5°CA (Crankshaft Angle) for 4.5 seconds.

    (b) Current intake valve timing fixed (timing changes less than 5°CA in 5 seconds).

    (c) Variations in VVT controller timing 19°CA or less of maximum delayed timing (retarded).

    Trouble Areas:
    • Valve timing
    Oil control valve (OCV)
    OCV filter
    • Camshaft timing gear assembly
    • ECM

    The Oil Control Valve and Filter are common for causing this issue.
