Let me know if this works for you in the comments below. Variable valve timing is very common nowadays for newer engines. And can cause many problems if your routine automotive maintenance is not kept up.
Don't waste your money on repairs before checking oil level and condition and or cleaning the VVT valve timing solenoids. If you have any of these diagnostic trouble codes stored in your ECM.
Also if your engine oil is in poor condition and starting to slug up I would recommend doing an engine oil flush to prevent further variable valve timing problems.

The Flat Rate Mechanic its vct solenoid not vvt
I just cleaned mine and the power saving light come on while on the highway than the power steering came on a 10 minutes later and the ABS also till I lost power (P0010 a)
ggg's fan its actually vvt. Valve variable timing . I've dealt with them
The Flat Rate Mechanic epic video
The Flat Rate Mechanic l have a 07 trailblazer with 148k. I brought it with 120k. I have made sure that I've have done all the reg maintenance myself. I use Mobil 1 and I just changed the oil the other day and I decided to pull the cam actuator and check the screens. To my delight they were very clean , just a few tiny specks of debris. this is the first time I've checked the valve timing solenoid I pulled it out and it was very clean screens were very clean . I think the previous owners must have had it serviced reg too.
The first guy that has made really good sense of what he's talking about and showing you how easy it is to take out a sensor
He didnt show how to take out the valve...
seems like a fake comment
@@otallono or course its a fake comment just look at the user name.
I hate this fucken fake comments
My 2009 malibu with 175K just threw a CEL. Used my OBDII scanner and got the P0013 code. In all 175K miles its never used oil between changes, but just went and checked the oil it was low!! Added about 3/4 quart and CEL gone. Thanks for saving me from embarassment (or geting ripped off) at the mechanic!!!
I LOVE YOU!!! Changed the oil in my 2008 Buick Enclave CXL with a code 0014 and now it runs like a champ. Thank you so very much!!
Thanks pal, I’ll try that first. I really appreciate you guys on the internet helping guys like me out.
Thank you. I really appreciate guys like you showing us how to do things right and save money. Again, big thank you.
cant believe this worked on my brothers 2013 Buick. Saved us a lot of money! Thank you
Thank you so much for posting this. It saved me a lot of time and tons of cash. A simple oil change, and the code is gone! Greatly appreciated!
You needed this guy to tell you to change your oil???
Did you replace the part?
I was hoping this was a solution, thank you so much for putting this out there and letting us know it’s possible.
Hey big thank you once again bro I really appreciate persons like you that are honest sincere not trying to make a quick buck just to send you another way you could be wasting money for nothing.
I had the P0013 problem. The change of the oil seems to have helped. Thank you!
I went from full synthetic 5w-30 to high mileage full synthetic and it caused a check engine. I’m gonna try to switch back and see what happens
My 2005 Volvo V50 2.4i Check Engine light came on while on a trip back from SW SD to SE MN. I stopped and had the code read for free at Oreilly Auto in Rapid City, SD. P2006 was the error code for Bank 1. Since I didn’t have tools to do a solenoid replacement I scouted the web and found your post. I had an oil change done before leaving Rapid City and that solved the issue. Thanks for posting this info. I am new to Volvo’s and I’ve heard they can be pretty sensitive if not maintained properly. You saved me a lot of time and trouble!
Thats awesome. Thanks
I replaced mine before I had any codes. I then took the old ones and cleaned them by using a sonic cleaner.
I always change my oil and filter every 3,000 miles so they looked pretty clean. I ran them through the sonic
cleaner twice and it did remove some light granules. After cleaning I put them into a container and filled it
up to the bottom of the plunger with oil so they don't rust. They are now ready to use if and when I need them.
Great video! You are right this is the first step or cheapest step in trying to fix the p0011 code thats being thrown.. Ty
Thanks. Had the problem with my Lexus. Oil clean, screens clean, valve cycled fine. Went to my mechanic, who is a smart guy. He just cycled it more times. After maybe a dozen or so, it failed. Replaced it and no problems. In retrospect, I probably just should have cleaned it more thoroughly. Will the next time!
My friend ran his oil low and way overdue car started running horrendous multiple cylinder misfires on all 6 cylinders. Codes p0018 and P0022 led me to believe this was the problem. Changed oil and took it a few miles to wash off the engine at the car wash. By the time I got done and cleared all the codes it was running like nothing ever happened. This video explains what happened thanks! 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe 3.3 l v6
Thank you for this! I have this problem right now with my 2013 Malibu. I was going to change out my solenoids but now that you said that, first thing I need to do is change my damn oil!! Thanks man you just saved me $$
You are very welcome.
Any update? My 2013 malibu is showing me the same
Mine is doing the same thing now
Dude!!! I just searched Google all night for all the info you just gave me. Seriously,thank you so much. Going to go get an oil change . I’ll be back to update this.
How did it go??. My code is P0014, and it says turbo over boost.??
@@mkkosila2095 yep. Was exactly that. Replaced the Solenoid just like he showed here. Literally haven’t had a problem and no light has come on.
@@mkkosila2095 that’s weird no car wiz , but that’s not right
Great! Thanks for your information now can do my self.👍🔧
I just wanna say thank you i got an oil change and problem solved no extra money spent
Thank you. I have a 2014 Cadillac ATS 2.0T . I am having 2 times now in 1 year, these codes. I replaced the solenoid once, and was about to do it again.. but I will try to clean as you suggest my friend... Thank you !!
99v8cobra did the problem resolve after cleaning?
Thanks for your time and help 👍👍
Thank you for your awesome honesty. You're great!
Thank you for sharing this video! Definitely helpful!
Thank you! Super helpful!
Wow that was very helpful because I just put on new valve cover gaskets on my 740I, The those codes popped up, so I’ll be changing the oil and filter
Did it fix it when you changed ?
I literally got that today , changed my vavle cover gasket a few days ago & that code popped up
Thanks for the video! You saved me a few hundred bucks. Daughter just ran her car super low on oil
Cause that's what they do.😫😫😖😤
not sure how you would have ever spent a few hundred bucks, any mechanic you would have taken it to would have told you it needs an oil change lmao a walmart tech would have told you that. This video is for learning about malfunctioning solenoids, little less obvious than needing oil.
@otallono you are way too trusting of ppl. I have seen ppl get ripped off whether due to malice or incompetence. Had 2 bad experiences with repair shops with this very car which raised my level of skepticism. Also had a mechanic forget to torque my lug nuts and the wheel nearly fell off on a different car. These aren't shadetree mechanics I go to either.
Very nice information without hassle
After having my R56 N14 engine rebuilt it was running really tough at low RPM, ok above ~2000 RPM. Taking out the vanos as you describe and cleaning it twice seems to have solved the problem. I also took out and cleaned the one-way oil check valve just below the vanos. I could see considerable sludge on the screens of the vanos, I assume residual from machining the block. In no way to I fault the machine shop, this was a very small amount of crud but I expect enough to require removing and cleaning the vanos screens twice. Really hoping that's all that's needed. Thank you for the video.
I had that code. Pored half gallon diesel in the crankcase and run it around town and changed the oil. Took care of problem.
VERY HELPFUL !
THANK YOU . . .
Excellent info! Thank you
Good Advice Thanks!!
Was asked by my brother in law to register his wife’s Mercedes, while they were out of town. Light was on and didn’t pass the emissions. Was going to take to a shop, but saw this video looking for a potential DIY option. Asked him when the last time he changed the oil, and he wasn’t sure. Changed his oil, drove around for about 10 minutes, parked and shutoff engine for a few minute, and when I started it up the light had cleared and went and passed the emissions test!
First thank you for your video, it was very informative and easy to follow. I only 2013 Buick Verano, when I purchased the vehicle it was at 20,000 miles. I am now at 85,000 miles and have experienced that code on my vehicle three times. Along with that code popping up my car will also shut off while in idle, this would typically happen after I start my car drove and then come to a complete stop. Each time I was able to start the car again and everything would be fine. I took my vehicle to the Buick dealer due to this engine code 3 separate times. Twice they told me they had to replace the camshaft. This last time which was about a month ago they told me that the code was due to low oil. I got the old changed and he told me that my car will be fine however my car is still shutting off while I’m driving it. They also turn the code off and now it’s not coming back on, But I’m wondering if my car is shutting off key to a camshaft iss but I’m wondering if my car is shutting off due to a camshaft issue
Sounds like you have a bad idle control valve to me? If the idle is sounding like it’s going up and down while you sat still my money is on that 👍🏻
Stop using cheap oil. Mobile 1 oil filter high mileage formula synthetic oil an oil additive synthetic lucus oil treatment
Awesome. Thank you my BROTHER
tHANK YOU FO THE HELP.
Good idea thanks for sharing 👍🏻
great advice definitely will try this first before wasting any cash, thanks
My 2014 Chev. Captiva check engine light came on I scanned it and it has been a P0010 and a P0011 code. I replaced both intake and exhaust light went off for a few days. Then came back on same codes, so my wife took it to a mechanic they did a detergent engine clean and changed the oil. Again the light came back on. I have taken both solenoids out and cleaned them again with carb cleaner. But I keep finding little tiny pieces of debris on the screens. Could the stuff they used to clean out the engine broke sludge off? Should I change the oil and clean them out and hope for the best. Is there something else that could throw those codes besides the camshaft solenoids? Help if you can?
Thank you for your grt advice...
Thank you.
Thank you very much !
Great video. Thanks 👍
Thank You 😊 very knowledgeable
Did a complete timing chain job on my QR25DE and the rattle on cold start came back after one week. Turbo, pistons, rods, springs. 18lbs
Need synthetic Lucas oil stabilizer
Also causes P300 and P012 codes at the same time. I replaced spark plugs before I realized P012 is triggered before P300. On Altima 2004 3.5 it is the one towards the front of the engine.
P0075 on my Opel/Vauxhall Astra
Your a Rock Star Broooooooo!!!
Awesome video.
Thnx. I got the errors and my mechanic did not know it. Kept resetting it. Pulled it out. Cleaned with brake cleaner and tested with 12v and now the code is gone. Thanks again
Top Man! Thanks so much.Sorted
I got the P0011 code shortly after an oil change from an oil change chain superstore. I am always suspicious and think I will go back to a specialty shop. I have a Chevy Equinox. Thanks for the information.
Divine Diva samething happened to me. That same code keeps coming back. Now my car sometimes has a hard start or will just turn off . Ive replaced the cam sensor but code still comes back
Divine Diva I got an oil change before going to my sisters 3hrs away. About an hour into my drive that code popped up. Wonder if it’s related
I want a free book
I didn't have any codes but I replaced them anyway. I took the old ones and sonic cleaned them.
After cleaning them I put them into a container and filled the container just to the parting line with oil.
I will leave them in the container until I need them, they will be ready to go.
I always change my oil and filter every 3,000 miles, so there is no sludge.
I removed a p0011 just by cleaning a ground wire near the area of the solenoid, at the front of the engine. Before the repair the truck ran rough coming up to stop signs and would buck and jerk when leaving the same stop sign. After repair the truck ran smoother and can do burnouts now lol.
What wires the connecting point
Would this happen to make my car make a noise like a grinding noise when I drive slow
@@arianaromero6307 CK your brakes
Thank you!
Thank you brother
Thanks dude, doing my bank 1 soon!
What’s bank 1?
Thanks
Thank you
Thanks.
Thanks so so much bro
thank you
Thanks for sharing , would it be possible to show how to actual clean it ??
Thank you bro
If you're not self-employed you're employer hates you. My code is throwing P0011 rich bank 1 cam sensor. I'll certainly test your input, but I'm now confidant. Thanks mate.
Did it work?
Ive changed these before when i was having issues shifting gears, the problem is back with a p1811 code (transmission solenoid) hopefully this fixes it again. That was 3 years ago and about 80k miles ago.
i changed my valve cover on my 2002 vw gti. i never had this code until i changed the valve cover. my oil was due for a change and i changed it but the code came back. i’m gonna take a look at the vvt solenoid
It never ends sometimes. Seems like you fix one thing and it's a chain reaction until the whole thing is about rebuilt. I replaced a radiator and ended up replacing the transmission line. Started leaking right after the 1st repair.
Good guy thank you lord. God bless you dude
up north here they seiz in and break when you twist on them. vise grips and 1.2 hour later and a can of penatrating oil and broken!
thank you for this sir!
Nice. Thanks
Glad to know, thanks
Awesome info! Did an oil change a boom solved! Thanks bro!
is the Problem came again?
Yeah
Change the oil on my 2011 chevy aveo lt 5. After that I got p0014. I am now going to clean the screen on my camshaft oil control valve.
my 2013 sonata had the p0014 code come on, then the engine stopped while driving on the highway, had it towed, changed the oil,cleaned the solenoid, after unplugging the battery for a few hours tried it again a few times and it finally started up again, left it in park for a few minutes, tapped on the gas and it stopped again and there was a bit of smoke. What could have happened?
Awesome
I just got this code on a family owned 2006 Nissan Altima 2.5L ( QR25DE ) engine , the problem is it hesitate during throttle ( on Drive or Park ), at first I thought it was the timing , but then I scanned it and P0011 is the code .
this is what I found , in 2007 Nissan made a recall on these particular year model and engine class regarding the camshaft sensor faulty reading ( overheating ) and disrupting the ECM faster than it could calculate and signal back . so I replaced both VVT sensor and the camshaft sensor , it is still doing that .
now I must open the timing chain cover and inspect the timing DTC .
I got the PDF file and it shows it can be even triggered by a coolant temperature sensor or oil pressure pump , and so on . I tested all the sensors and they all are working according to manual procedure.
I tell you : these new cars are not worth buying at all .
Same with my 06 sentra 2.5. You have any luck figuring out the issue?
Will a bad vvt cause a knocking sound? And cause multiple cylinder misfire?
I cleaned 2012 GMC Terrain the exhaust solenoid (Code P0013) and cleared the code. 2 days later, Code P0011 appeared and the car began running rough and stalled at stop lights if did not push a bit on the accelerator. P0011 is apparently another camshaft related item that I need to fix in order to pass emissions test. I wonder why this second code popped up as I pulled into the testing station. Spooky. Hope I can find a video about that 'quickly'. You have a great way of presenting your information. Thanks.
Just got that code as well today did u figure out what was the issue
Great video. How would you clean it? What to use? Also, how can you test or measure of current is reaching this sensor's terminals?
brake clean work just fine
I (a shop) changed my knock sensors on my 2014 Silverado 5.3L VVT. Took it to the dealer and had the code cleared. Code just came back and I noticed a slight valve clatter when the CEL comes on, but it is very slight and goes away almost immediately yet throws the knock sensors codes. Could this just be my VVT solenoid needing cleaned or changed? The truck sounds very healthy otherwise and has no knocks or ticks and no misfire codes.
Deos this stop the turbo from spinning?
Hi. Could you explain why a p0015 not falls into the list of errors that could be caused by clogged solenoids?
Hello the Great man
I have a Reaunalt megan 1.6 manual and I checked by code reader and I find, P0010 A camshaft position A control Circuit/ open bank 1
and actually I don't know from where I have to check the car?
if this solenoid is not workng properly would that cause the engine to overheat?
2007 QX56 changed both solenoids and have not been able to get rid of the engine light and can not pass smog check. any other suggestions. Are both solenoids the same? or could i have placed them in the wrong location?
nice picture of the part....could you post where on the engine this is located and how to remove it?
It depends of the car you want to know
Can a dirty VVT cause a loud rattling noise?
I put these 2 in my 20014 buick vreno and
mmy engine light it come on can you help me what do I need to do thankyou
Where is this in the engine or can you direct me to a website that would show it? Thanks !
hello, I have changed the VVT, I still get the P0011 code. the engine is not even a year old. please advise.
thanks,
i recently had the timing belt and sump cleaned and the engine light was not removed. Could error P0014 be related to the work done relating to this work done which was supposed to resolve errors P15A8 at all? Is the work the mechanic carried out incomplete?
I just subscribed thank you so much, curious I have the same codes Malibu 2014 P0013 POO14 I’m loosing power to the car battery goes dead
I have a 2006 BMW 325i and the codes p0012 and p0015 came up and it caused the car to lose a lot of power and I replaced the camshaft position sensors and the vanos solenoids and it was fine for a couple days but the other day the codes came back up and the car lost a lot of power and took forever to accelerate, any suggestions on what I could do or what could be the problem
Hi, can P0022 also be related to the same problem?
شكرا
