Original wording in English

This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician about vehicles that have a Malfunction Indicator Lamp on. Technician will find Diagnostic Trouble Code P0011 and or P0014. Technician will need to remove the camshaft solenoids and inspect the screens for debris. Technician will need to clean off the screens with brake cleaner if debris is present. If code resets or the screen did not have debris on them, remove the camshaft actuator associated with the Diagnostic Trouble Codes and with light air pressure, blow out the oil passages through the camshaft actuator solenoid port. Lubricate the camshaft solenoid seal(s) with clean engine oil and reinstall and install a new camshaft actuator associated with the Diagnostic Trouble Code.

Repeated filings are grouped only when make, bulletin number, publication date and complete summary agree. Original record numbers are retained. Older publications remain available, and an explicit later version is shown when established. Pre-1994 vehicle associations are separated from default results; an unspecified year does not mean all model years apply.
