Hey everyone, couple weeks ago, while driving, my serpentine belt broke, which I have replace. When I took her out for a spin, my car turn off. Everything electric works just fine. The problem now that I'am having is the Service Engine Soon came on, & my idle goes down less than 1k & while driving sometimes the engine turns off while I'am at a complete stop. I had a friend look at it, & run it through the computer. It gave me 2 codes: p0014 & p0078. My friend advised me that I had to replace the "camshaft adjust valve" bank 1, which I did. But the symtoms are still the same! Anyone experience this before or know what I should do next?

 

sounds to me like the broken belt & pieces hit a sensor or two and threw something out of whack... I would test all the sensors and replace as needed. Next time try replacing the belts on schedule to avoid this scenario. I actually had a car a few weeks ago that was a complete nightmare. I was just supposed to do the rear brakes, but instead I had to saw away at a seized caliper bolt (had to remove caliper), replace a wheel stud, and to top it off when I starter it up after that stuff was done, the power steering belt shredded to bits (it was done for).

 

The same issue just happened to me, belt broke and all. Can you tell me what was the end result and whats parts were replaced.

 

In my case I just had to replace the broken parts. No sensor damage was done.

 

Can you tell which parts you replaced and much it set you back?

 

Two drive belts, around $30 total for parts.
