I have repeatedly had code P0016 with rough idle and worse engine power for months. I've replaced belt+water pump, both cam sensors, crank sensor, and oil+filter. Still getting it and today i got P0011 too. Here's hoping replacing the solenoids will solve it all
Did it help? I have the same codes on my scion tC. Started with p0011 then p0016 and now p0010. Cleaned the solenoid and it didn’t help, tested power and the solenoid and all was good. I’m in the process of changing my crank sensor now. I’m at a loss for what it could be. At times it drives fine, but a lot of the time there’s late shifting and a drone/rattle noise and engine bogging. I’ve asked mechanic friends and they aren’t sure either. Shit sucks haha
@@Omgjosh925 these codes are referring to the intake camshaft and timing. If you have tested the intake VVT solenoid valve and you are sure that there is nothing wrong with that, next step could be the intake cam sensor.
@@AutomotiveDiagnosis yeah I’m not sure why someone told me to check the crank sensor first, the cam sensor would make more sense. I think I’m gonna order that and replace it first since it’s easier than the crank sensor anyways haha. Thank you for your input, it means a lot! You got a new subscriber !
@@Omgjosh925 I replaced both VVT solenoids, and it now runs like a new car, so it must have been one or both of them. I noticed there was a heavy dent in the gauze filter of the exhaust one, which was possibly the cause of the intermittent behaviour, especially after putting the car under load.

i have a 2012 chevy traverse Lt i seen engine light come on so i hooked engine reader up and P0011 came up add i looked it up and it said most common reason was low oil so i put two quarts in and engine light went off should i still get the code looked at????/
Hello i hope you see my comment and give me a helpful reply … My g37s infiniti had the same code going over 8 months for now i have changed oil , filter, and both cam shafts sensors and only one solenoid sensor which is bank 1 as the code gave me p0011 but i did not change the bank 2 solenoid. So my question is. Could bank2 solenoid be the problem also? Or should i change my crankshaft sensor? Or what should i do please help me i have been in this issue for so long. Thank you so much
Hi my friend. There are a couple of other possibilities for this case: - If that engine has dual VVT, please make sure that you have checked/replaced the bank 1 “intake” VVT solenoid - You don’t need to replace the crankshaft sensor for now, but you might need to focus on the VVT itself or bank 1 Intake camshaft tone wheel which is located at the end of the camshaft to trigger the signal on camshaft sensor. - I don’t have that model of Infiniti right now to double check, but please make sure that there is no separate filter for VVT solenoid on the engine, if there is, it must be removed and cleaned.

@@AutomotiveDiagnosis I JUST SAW THAT PERSONS QUESTION. COULD IT BE TIED TO A SOLENOID VALVE CODE? I HAVE 2 CODES. ONE IS VARIABLE CONTROL TIMING SYSTEM MALFUNCTION P0011- ENGINE CODE. THE SECOND ONE IS VARIABLE VALVE TIMING CONTROL ADVANCED MALFUNCTION P1009- ENGINE CODE
after replacing both camshaft position sensors (bank1&2)ticking from engine (5.4 triton 2004 f-50) P0011 popped up bank 1 , and wondering if it would straight up be timing chain , or that sensor on bank 1 any experiences similar and your stories would be great !?
@@AutomotiveDiagnosis hello! FYI I have not replaced timing chain because before going major issue is all. I replace both camshaft position sensor on front because I got codes saying both. But once replaced them it appeared P0011 , on bank 1 , and reminder there is a loud ticking noise at this point. ATP I am thinking the intake sensors , but if not to avoid replacing that and going straight to the timing chain . Thank you in advance !
I don’t suggest to replace the sensor again as you just did that. The loud ticking noise is suspicious, could be from the timing chain or VVT. I will first go for the intake VVT solenoid inspection and the. For the timing chain.
@@AutomotiveDiagnosis thank you I will check the VVT solenoid see if it may need a clean up or mabye not opening as shown in video , I’d rather not mess with any timing chain before going through diagnostic thanks !
I had p0011 code because I had a rat living on top of the engine. That little rat eat through the two wires that feed power to connector. Does it matter which way the two wire are hooked up?
Good afternoon friend! I have a 2011 GMC Terrain SLT. A few days ago I changed the timing chain and tensioner kit. The next day that they delivered it to me, the engine began to die at 0 revolutions while I was at a red light or slowly passing a curb, the engine died and I had to start up again to start my machine. The code that the scanner gives me is P0011: Camshaft Synchronization Fault. Excessive advance on bench 1. Camshaft position. What is the error code P0011 friend?
Hi there, So you didn’t have this code before changing the timing chain? At the first place check the intake VVT solenoid connector, sometimes they forget to check the connectors after the repair. It also could be for the timing misalignment as it started happening right after the repair.
@@AutomotiveDiagnosis I already had the P0011 code before changing the chains and timing tensioner. But my engine wouldn't shut off when I was parked at a red light or going over a curb. Engine started to die at 0 revs in parked but running situations after timing chains and timing tensioner were changed. Right after that change of chains and tensioner, my engine is dying while it is static. But the truth is that that code P0011 already appeared to me long before I changed chains and my friend's time tensioner. Why is my engine dying when I am parked at a red light or when a friend passes slowly?
Everything explained in this video is applicable to that car too, but generally you can start by checking the engine oil, then CVVT oil control valve (Solenoid). It could be timing chain problem as well but it's much better to check the solenoid before the timing chain as it happens a lot and it is not costly. You haven't had any repair on the engine recently that it needed the timing chain or head removal?
Hi There, every code you have is referring to the intake camshaft position, and as you have P000A which is: “Intake “”A” Camshaft Position Slow Response Bank 1.” and your engine doesn't start anymore, I think you must start by checking the intake camshaft position sensor first.
before i use thicker oil 15w/50..just fine... now i use thinner oil 10w/30 ..and the code appear when i scan P0011..why?? shud i change to thicker oil again? help
If it appeared after that, yes oil could be the problem. VVT works with the engine oil and mostly the thicker oil affects it's operation but in some case ant other oil which engine is not designed on, could make some difficulties.

I think you should have started by inspecting the solenoid valve instead of sensors

Could this sensor’s issue be connected to an intake valve code popping up along with it?
You mean intake valve or solenoid valve?
@@AutomotiveDiagnosis I JUST SAW THAT PERSONS QUESTION. COULD IT BE TIED TO A SOLENOID VALVE CODE? I HAVE 2 CODES. ONE IS VARIABLE CONTROL TIMING SYSTEM MALFUNCTION P0011- ENGINE CODE. THE SECOND ONE IS VARIABLE VALVE TIMING CONTROL ADVANCED MALFUNCTION P1009- ENGINE CODE
Would engine dye to look for oil leaks affect the VVT mechanism? My 2.0TSI Volkswagen has new oil and added the dye. Now I have P000A and P0011
Normally dye shouldn't affect the VVT operation, different oil can do that though.
