Thanks stark iv cleaned the ocv valves but still nothing, I'm getting a clicking sound at 6200 revs instead of 50bhp, it could b a new valve or both

Thanks for your reply, have you any idea how much the valves cost?

Can anyone help with this diagnosis, the car drives fine apart from the fact there's no lift what so ever and instead of an extra 50 bhp I'm getting the eml, what would be the worst case scenario?

Iv already been down the cam sensor route but nothing changed, I would like to ignore the problem myself but iv been through 2 coil packs in 2 months so i can't ignore it I don't even drive it now.

My car is smoking more than usual, its lumpy until just under 4k revs then it takes off like theres nothing wrong with it, its not overheating infact it seems to struggle to heat up and what ever the problem is its causing the coil packs to fail. No mechanic thats worked on it has a clue what the problem is and I've been to quite a few now. Heres what the diagnostic came up with: camshaft position sensor a circuit catalyst system efficiency below threshold idle air control system igniter circuit malfunction 1,2 & 4 ocv circuit malfuntion I noticed the oil light flickering on and off when there was plenty of oil in it, the car goes through a lot of oil could it be possible the oil lines could've become blocked? There's 150k on the car. Any help would be greatful I'm very nearly at the end of my patience.
