Variable valve timing (vvt-i) works with oil pressure, if your oil is dirty or low it would set this code, if somebody did a big engine job and use too much silicon base gasket that gasket can travel all the way to oct filter and clog it, starving the vvt gear.


solution check the oil level and condition
Low put some to the right level.
dirty and heavy do a couple oil changes, code still there, ask your mechanic to clean the oct filter and check the vvt actuator for debris .

The check engine light keep coming on .What can be the problem i need help please

engine lights come on when there is a serious problem in the engine or transmission
you should be checking the sump oil level, coolant level at the radiator cap, transmission oil level and then having the fault codes read
to continue driving without determining the cause for the light could become very expensive

Got missing problem which was fixed after injection coil and one spark plug rusted by water was cleaned but the missing reappears at high speed in my toyota corolla 2003 1.8E. how can i fix it?

These days an engine light mostly should be turned off using either a code reader or a scanner. Some might still turn themselves off when the fault is fixed but that facility tends to be related more to the old days when shorting a couple of obd socket pins would cause the engine light to blink out the codes. In those days disconnecting the battery used to clear the codes and reset the defaults.

Knowing why the engine light is on would be a helpful clue to what sort of things to test and maybe repair or replace and for that a code read is the best way, though a code should never be considered a repair instruction.
Best practice is basics first. A thorough visual check of the engine compartment and ensure the routine maintenance is up to date and competently completed. You know the coil and spark plug has been giving trouble so revisit those items, all of them, for further checking and testing the spark power and quality.

Once you are satisfied all is in order, clear the code and roadtest. If the light comes back on you will need to delve further...

Oil pressure light goes on --check oil oil is okay. now the check engine light goes on too. do you think i need to change my oil pressure switch?

first get the code that is stored in the computer when the check engine light went on. Most major auto parts stores will read that code out for free. If the oil pressure is truly very low, the engine will be damaged so be careful. Changing the oil pressure switch is a safe move. But if the oil pressure remains low on the new switch you must investigate why. The oil filter could be plugged up, the oil pump could be going bad, or there could be a major internal engine problem. That is why you need the code. It could give a clue as to what is happening in the engine.

Need to know what this code is for 2003 toyota corolla -p1349vvt.oil light and check engine comes on.

you are having a problem with the variable valve timing system which depends on oil pressure to move an actuator which changes the valve timing. this could be because the actuator is clogged or your engine oil pressure is too low. Check the engine oil level first. If the engine has the proper amount of oil, you will need to have the oil pump pressure checked. If that is good, then the variable valve timing actuator should be checked for clogging.

Check engine light staying on

No,  the check engine lamp will only come on when there is a problem in engine management system, it needs to be checked with an OBDII scan tool to find the problem causing the check engine lamp to come on.
