P052D
Cold Start A Camshaft Position Timing Over-Retarded Bank 2P052D is a generic OBD-II powertrain diagnostic trouble code: Cold Start A Camshaft Position Timing Over-Retarded Bank 2. It is logged by the engine control unit when the ckp/cmp monitor detects that a specific fault threshold has been exceeded — typically resulting in the malfunction-indicator lamp (MIL / check-engine light) being illuminated.

Disabling P052D in software
RaceTune can permanently disable P052D — and any other OBD-II diagnostic trouble code — on every ECU family we support. The monitor is disabled inside the ECU itself, so the fault stops being logged: the warning light stays off and the engine never enters limp mode for this code. The change is tied to your exact software version.
Software modifications affect emissions compliance and are not road-legal in many jurisdictions. RaceTune service files are intended for motorsport, off-road, and export use.
