Awesome content, those buicks have the problems with the timing chain guides, had exact same problem, the exhaust solenoid failed, same code. About 6 months after i did solenoid customer comes back with another camshaft code, dont remember if it was exact same but i think it was and i found solenoid to be good, but timing chain guides have plastic attached that had broken and failed. now this is the third different buick to do this to me, so when i see it i take the extra 15 min and lift VC enough to get my scope in and inspect, from what ive seen is the plastic falls off the top center chain guide, and the chain wears the metal thats left and causes solenoid to fail. bottom line you will be seeing that car again soon for timing component replacement fairly soon

Hi all, I have a 2018 Vauxhall insignia 1. 5 petrol turbo, and last month my car went into limp home mode and EML light came on, scanned it with my basic scan tool and came up with codes p0011 and p0014, took back to main dealer and they replaced both intake and exhaust camshaft vvt Solenoids, as they had both failed, no charge as car is still under warranty.

One thing I like to do is check the screen on the bottom, there's been a time or two that I've seen a build up. Sure those are high fail parts that the dealer stock piles, but I'm starting to see more and more of lack of oil changes causing issues like this. I've even been known to recommend an oil change after such repair.

Eric I didn't see an End Session button on your Diagun? Both my Launch 's have a 'button' to get out of the Diagnostic & back to the main menu. It's great the function I like most out of all the tools. Unlike Obdstar & Autel crap, back back back back my fingers are getting tennis elbow!

The way you verify the diagnosis first, then confidently swap in the new part, is gold. Sweet scan tool! People who don't have a bidirectional scanner can still do this with live data, watching the engine call for a specific angle and checking that the desired angle was achieved.

2. 4l engine is crap, my 2013 Malibu Eco needed a new engine, bought the car used with 64, 000 miles. Had timing chain failure at 125, 000 miles. You never know how previous owners maintained their cars, always check oil levels for these engines.

Gotta love modern vehicles - just 1 year out of warranty, and we've got a solenoid failure.
Great vid - I'll remember this one for when one of these turds rolls in years (or maybe sooner) down the road.

My 07 Cobalt LE5 has those. Resistance for the solenoids should be between 7 and 15 ohms. And the solenoids are cam specific. You can't swap them because the connection shapes are different between the two.
