How does CVVT Works In An Engine?

General Description:

The CVVT( Continuously Variable Valve Timing) System is installed to the chain sprocket of the intake camshaft. This system controls the intake camshaft to provide the optimal valve timing for every driving condition. The ECM controls the oil control valve (OCV), based on the signal output from mass airflow, throttle position and engine coolant temperature. The CVVT controller regulates the intake camshaft angle using oil pressure through the OCV. As Result, the relative position between the camshaft and the crankshaft becomes optimal, and the engine torque improves, fuel economy improves, exhaust emission decrease under driving conditions.

Stopped Hyundai Motor’s Production in India

MUMBAI: A strike that stopped Hyundai Motor's production in India for two days was called off on Wednesday night after India's top car exporter agreed to consider rehiring dozens of workers dismissed in the wake of violent protests, the company said.
In government-brokered talks, Hyundai agreed to consider reinstating on ``humanitarian grounds'' 35 employees who were dismissed after earlier protests, the company said in a statement. A committee of company and government officials and workers will together decide on rehiring.
Hyundai had already taken back 20 of the 87 workers fired after protesters damaged property and beat up guards and was reluctant to rehire more lest it set a bad example of impunity.
"The problem is 80 percent OK," K. Thangapandian, vice president of the Hyundai Motor India Employees Union, which led the strike, said in an interview Wednesday.
Thangapandian said 200 workers arrested Tuesday when police entered the factory and broke the strike would likely be released by Thursday evening.
As part of the deal, Hyundai has agreed to reinstate them in their jobs and without punishment, he said.
This is the fourth strike since 2008 at Hyundai's plants in Sriperumbedur, outside the growing auto hub of Chennai, in the southern state of Tamil Nadu.
Persistent labour unrest has pushed Hyundai, which pioneered the idea of using India as a small car production hub, to move some production to Turkey, closer to its major export market of Europe.
The two-day stoppage resulted in losses of about $28 million, Hyundai said. more info

GENERAL DISCRIPTION
= According to the General Description of this Trouble code,The CVVT(Continuously Variable Valve Timing). This system Controls the intake camshaft to provide the optimal valve timing for every driving condition. The ECM(Engine Control Unit) controls the OCV, based on the signal output from the mass air flow, Throttle Position and engine coolant temperature. The CVVT controller regulates the intake camshaft angle using oil pressure through the OCV. As a result , the relative position between crankshaft and camshaft become optimal, and the engine torque improves, fuel economy improves, exhaust emissions decrease under overall driving conditions.

= Try a good condition OCV, As a result the Engine operates normally. 

4) Repair Guide:

Replace Parts:

1. CKP(Crankshaft Position Sensor)
2. OCV(Oil Control Valve)

Hyundai Coupe/Tiburon First began production

Tiburon first began production in late 1996. It was available in a few foreign markets with engine choices of either 1.6L or 1.8L. In the United States, the Tiburon was first offered in 1997 with base models using the Elantra's 1.8L 130 hp (97 kW) engine while the upscale FX received a 2.0L four-cylinder engine. The 2.0L was rated at 140 hp (104 kW) at the crankshaft (the car's manual specifies 102 kW (137 hp) at the flywheel). Base weight was around 2,550 lb (1,150 kg), giving the RD Tiburon a higher power to weight ratio than the newer GK 2.0L. The 2.0L produces a 0–60 mph time of ~8.2,^[3] with a 1/4 mile time of ~16 seconds. In 1998 the Tiburon lost its weaker 1.8L engine, giving both models the 2.0L. All versions of the Tiburon manufactured from 1996–2002 are known as "RD" Tiburons. There were various options, with or without ABS, 2 airbags, leather, and sunroof.
Various special editions were also produced, focusing primarily on cosmetic modifications and improvements. In the UK, Hyundai's entrance into the Formula 2 World Rally Championships saw the release of the "F2" and "F2 Evolution" models in 1998 and 1999 respectively.
The F2 modifications included a front spoiler lip, mesh grill, 16" mesh alloy wheels (with Pirelli P7000 tyres), uprated Sony stereo, customised sill plates and gearstic
