Do you have a check engine code P0011? Does the engine in your car or truck feel rough, maybe it's misfiring? In this video, Sue takes you through the steps of identifying and diagnosing a timing problem caused by a faulty VVT solenoid. Trouble code P0011 indicates that the camshaft is advanced further than the computer expects it to be. While that could indicate problems with the cam shafts, gears, or timing belts or chains, with modern vehicles, the variable valve timing solenoid is often to blame. The VVT solenoid is a valve that is controlled by the engine computer. It has oil passages that open and close to advance and de-advance timing of the engine. Dirty oil can clog up these passages, and interfere with the valve.

Not gonna lie, this is probably the most detailed 'how to' video I've ever watched. I realised quite quickly that this didn't relate to my issue, and I still finished the whole thing 🤣
This woman is a well experienced mechanic, she can make any engine sing in harmony.
An amazingly detailed instructor I hope there are more videos lead by her because she is fantastic
“Pretty excited about a misfire” 😊 So glad you love your job and make videos like this for us…
If i ever need someone to fix my car, you will be the first one I call. 👍👍
Very details and great diagnostic. This video so far are the best I’ve seen. I wish you live in my city, I’ll definitely use your service. Thank you
Your videos helped me sort my cambelt, saved my engine, thank you
Your video is the best demonstration about vvt solenoid testing. Thank you very much may jehovah god bless you.
👏🏼 by far the best diagnostic video. Very focused. Easy to follow w great info.
Excellent vid and your mechanic did a great job explaining the process.
I am beyond just impressed, I agree with others comments, this lady is by far the best mechanic and teacher ever! (Sure wish she lived in our area)
I loved watching someone who LOVES their work....she really does!!!!
Great, great video. You are a great teacher and technician.
Just love your thorough explanation!
Love your enthusiasm and expertise!
Hi, Sue! Nice to see you again. :-) Take care and have a great weekend!
Good diagnostic tech!! Knowing is half the battle.
Learned something new everytime thank you.
I love the way u explaining how to diagnose, I appreciate your videos and love watching them

Your personality and your method of presentation make it easy to watch. Thank you for all the information you gave on the topic. I started changing these this morning on an '06 F150 5.4l 3v Triton. The vct's are down in a hole with a small bolt holding them in and a rubber seal on top. The passenger side went ok. But the driver side little bolt is screwed in so tight it's ridiculous. Maybe a guy could break it loose but it is almost like it was put in with an impact wrench. So my question is...how can I break this little bolt loose without messing up something? Thanks for your help...whoever answers. Jesus bless.
Great video lady watching this from Jamaica 👍👍
Very good communication given, I love et, proper instructions, on subject matter at hand, 😊 👍 good job.
This video is perfect timing, my car has been burning oil (oil loss with black smoke). Now I know what my next steps should be. Thanks 👍

black smoke means too much fuel... burning oil is blue smoke. One smells like unburned fuel and the other one like burnt oil. Either way, not a VVT solenoid.
Lady, you are the best!
Exellent diagnostic , Saludos desde Dallas, tx 👏👏👏👏👏
Excellent and informative
Great instructional video thank you
You made this helpful post understandable. Thanks Sue.

Excellent detailed testing at 12:30. I have a pesky P0011 on 2007 Nissan Xterra 6 speed manual 112k miles. I do not want to bust open the timing cover and do a timing job if not needed so that test will help determine if the problem is with the cam phaser. Thank you

Great video; thank you. Though I've searched KZread on replacing the other bank and nobody has shown the process and headache of removing the plenum to gain access to that one. I was hoping you would show that process on the 3.5L Nissan Altima.
Love it😁we need more of her
Excellent topic 👍
Great job , thank you
Excellent video ,well explain 👏bravo 👏
Thanks for this confirmation!

Good video. Thanks!
Great info.
Thanks, God bless you.
Quick question - when completed and the codes have been reset, wouldn't you need to do a Vanos adaptation reset to ensure the values are within tolerance? Great video by the way!
Makes sense. I've seen VVT screw up and over time causing the PCV to stick and blojob oil out of the engine.
"Box Office" lady is back. Love her videos
This helped me out allot

Thank you so much I did everything you said and it worked but my battery warning is still lit on my dash but it’s not weak the battery and it doesn’t need a jump how do I reset that
It nice explaination
Well explained 👏 more like you be helpful , Dude like me ( fixt. ) oil leak...👍
Very good video, thanks for sharing!!!
Hello Dear, thanks a lot for explaining it very well I got important information about facing a problem. Actually, I have " Hyundai Accent 2013 car" I am facing the problem " the Oil light is blinking, when I cross around 20 KM, the light blinking when I stop only not while I'm driving" Anyway, I checked my car by computer tester and I found this error " P0011 'A' Camshaft Position Timing Over-Advanced Or System Performance Bank 1" Please tell me what must to do.
I bought a used truck & it had the same code. It was apparent that previous owner did not change oil often enough. When I took the oil cap off, you can see the burnt oil residue on inside. So, I added oil cleaner and drove truck awhile. Then changed the oil. Once changed, removed the solenoid and soaked it overnight in diesel. Then I tested it by hooking wires to battery. The solenoid plunger moved. Reinstalled. Engine light is still on, I think I can reset by adding a 1 Watt 10 ohm resister to battery. So, was it wise to add oil cleaner first before installing new solenoids? It's a quick fix till I buy new ones.
I'm having similar issues. I had vvt codes after running out of gas. Turned out to be bad intake. I changed them both but now I have a misfire in cylinder 2. And the intake code p0010 still there.. Changed oil and filters and air filter. Worried to start my car again with the misfire.
I enjoy watching her
For the rear VVT there's not need to take out the intake manifold, just move to the left that black hose full of cables and use an extender with a ratch. It will take less than 10 minutes.
My wife has a LR discovery sport and her CE light just came on. Codes are P0000A, P0011, P000B and P0014. I checked her oil. It was low. Is this a DIY job or should I take it to dealership?
I got a problem with my secondary air injection system and the pigtail that’s hooked up to it isn’t getting power any idea of how to fix it please reply
15 Hyundai Sonata sport 2.4L codes P0010 P0011 and where the solenoid located. Thank you for your assistance
Is it possible that these solenoids will need to be replaced without a code? I have a blue driver and my vvt was showing live data and it was marked with a yellow exclamation amd the other vvt were green. I have a rough idle.
The thing i found is the solenoid test good when cold . Put it back on the engine when hot for 25 min. It stop working. check for this.
Good day, i have a chevy cruze. I get p0011 error. Replaced the intake cam due to sensor pickup that broke off. Then i replaced the solenoid valve. Still get p0011 error after driving for about 15km. When the car is cold and i start it the lifters make a noise then it goes quiet. Must i change my vvt sprocket. Thank you
Should I be using synthetic oil for my Nissan Versa 2014? I have the code p0011

Should I disconnect the battery before replacement?
Hello I like your videos but I have a question. I have a humming kind of grinding noise at lower speeds but the humming throughout speeds on the left front tire wheel. I thought it was the bearing but when I turn right it goes away and when I drive on the left side of the road that is banked maybe four or 5° so that the left side of the wheel goes down rides on the lower part of the bank the noise goes away. But the alignment was recently done and it said it was good within spec and after the alignment and still does it I still have all the same symptoms. Can it still be the bearing that is cracked in some place or is the bearing like cockeyed within the hub but we'll still go straight.

I feel that the tire is riding on the inside of it like cambered top tire in, so that when it rides on a bank road it rides at the correct angle...
My oil is still nesrly ambet and at max yet my dash says "get engine serived". My 2003 Saturn Ion purrs like a kitten. I take care of it myself thougj i had a mechanic replace the ECM recently because as a DYI'ER I must know my limitations. There is no more than 1200 miles on my engine (5/30 Pennzoil Platinum - nothing but the BEST)! Why do i get this indicator? Thanks. David Alberta
I keep up the oil changes and I scanned came that code , i recently replaced the engine gasket , why still comes up !
Did u fix the misfire?
Does this cause a lil knocking ?
Will you get p0081 code for either solenoid? Or is p0081 specific to a bank?
We plan to travel for thanksgiving and now we got stock rpm high
Help!! A have P0011 and the problem is not VVT, a tried it. Somtimes its code P000A but most of the time P0011. What to do?
Word on the street is always buy OEM? 🤔 I did and still throwing same code
I got an oil change and they didn’t know what service engine soon indicator light was for. It is diff than check engine light. Went to autozone and got a pp0011 code and they didn’t know what it was for. After he pulled out reader the light went off and reset itself. Another thing neither car place knew how to do. Mine is Mitshubishi
Can anyone help? I have the P0011 code. I took it too autozone and it told me that it was the timing plate(very unfamiliar with this part) I know it’s a cover of some sort. But I have no problems with the car, no rattling, slapping, or any other odd noises, no trouble starting or accelerating, or idle issues. Any help on this? I don’t want to take it and spend more money then I have to, (just purchased vehicle)
2007 Hyundai Sonata... check engine code P0011... oil is fine... bought brand new vvt solenoid (specific for my car)... easy install, now the car idles very high... tried 4 straight days, hoping it would adjust, but same result... anybody have solutions...thanks
Where is the vvt selnoid location in 2015 Hyundai sonata sport 2.4l?
Is FULL Synthetic oil actually 100% synthetic or not?
Nissan VQ35 is a great engine, that is if she is full of good quality oil and not hooked up with a Jatco CVT
Here's the gig (ignition on / engine off) (Gm 3.6 over Advanced exhaust) When you plug in all four actuators Three of the actuators engage and when you start the engine it runs absolutely terrible. The fourth solenoid has power but does not activate the solenoid but the solenoid is good cuz I checked it manually. But with the fourth one plugged in and the other three solenoids unplugged the engine runs perfect cuz three of them are not engaged. plug any other actuator in and the engine runs pathetic
What happen when it’s over oil on the engine?
Okay first girl power!!!!!!🍧🎂🍨🌹 Second thank you thank you very much and third don't you ever stop we need you
Hi I am Aurang zaib from Pakistan and you? Good work I am waiting your answer
What about for 2015 Volkswagen Passat tsi
Engineers design car, spec a maintenance interval for all serviceable systems, end users don't do maintenance, say the car is horrible. Engineers redesign systems to be "sealed for life" and use "lifetime fluids". Problem solved right?
What a coincidence I have yet same code on my murano. Changed vvt solenoid, oil pressure sensor, and both cam sensors, and damn code still there. Stooopid nissan

Did you forget to erase it? Make sure you have the proper oil weight in the engine.

Next thing to check is oil pressure with a manual gauge, if something is wrong with engine and oil pressure is low, this code will trip.
You either advance the timing or retard the timing, I know that last word is a trigger word for some sensitive snowflakes but it's accurate for what you are trying to describe, do not let their overly sensitive feelings stop you from stating the facts using the best and most accurate words to describe what is happening. Great educational video by the way!
Can someone tell me if the front solenoid the same as the one to the back?
