    Might be timing adjustable by the computer using oil pressure. Might need shim changes when valves where. Might need valve adjustments when the valves where.

    Might throw a code if the oil is low causing the cam adjustment mechanism to not work. Might spin a lobe down and stop a cylinder from working. Might break. Moght get out of time if the timing chain jumps a tooth.
