Mechanic changed the timing belt on my 2005 Highlander 3.3L V6.
Car is displaying code P0018, quick google search says "P0018 is the OBD-II generic code indicating that the camshaft position sensor A for bank 2 does not correlate to the signal from the crankshaft position sensor".
The Highlander runs fine, and I actually towed a boat twice to the lake 60 miles each way. I thought the check engine light would cycle off, but clearly didn't.
I spoke with the mechanic, who said that one cam "maybe off one tooth".
He offered to correct the problem at a later date.
My questions:
-Am I doing harm (engine knock etc)?
-Will the computer modify timing to that side?
-Can I drive 500 miles tomorrow morning with this vehicle?
