this is a cam timing issue- this is a VCT engine cam timing is adjusted using OIL pressure - be sure oil is full. clean, correct weight sometimes a stuck (gum varnish) component can be freed with an oil additive ie RISOLINE..added to oil. If the simple easy fix did not help... will need to check ,cam sensors, cam position actuators and cam timing. Try the easy simple first

Any recent repair work done to the engine before the problem showed up? Code can show up if the timing chains have stretched. Should be covered under the 7 year 100K warranty. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.
