check out the oil switch and the oil pump. Did you change the iol filter?
It is humiliating to be associated with thieves and murderers.

talk to dan, 0722-322-505, he will sort you out. He is located in ngara near supermambo bar. After kaiorkor market you turn left, about 10Meters just before you get to the kobil petrol station (-1.273108,36.83573). The exact location on google maps is -1.271563,36.832933

i did electronic diagnosis with the experts joe and izzo formely of caltex madaraka printout shows vvti system failure.His analysis was that the vvti sytem runs using oil and if its not there thats why. I know problem is oil but now seems i have to dismantle the engine and check the pump something i hate coz the tuning is never the same again.putting a newly imported engine seems the best option but its 100k too expensive

Did the diagnosis reveal the exact error code ? You can cross check what they told you with explanations online.
