This is the exact sound my engine makes on start-up. Goes away within a few seconds. Only comes back when I turn my car off for longer than 10 minutes. I have been searching for the problem for over 6 months. Thank you!
Luckily in my case I had the starting rattle too and it was only the solenoids ended up being the intake solenoid at fault but changed both drove it with the starting rattle for a while until it started to affect the car while driving too reduced performance and started to sound like a diesel rough knocking sound and eventually the check engine light came on had p0011 without the check engine light and then after 1st doing a oil flush it changed to a p0016 with check engine light when started the engine after oil change. It might still rattle on fully cold starts but have started it a few times since today and didnt have the rattle so will see it drives better now anyway even the flush and fresh oil helped a bit before new solenoids fitted. Thank you for showing how to remove that pcv pipe clip I had to disconnect a load of things I even removed the airbox to get some more space which particularly helped when it came to removing the solenoid after the bolt to have space with some grips
Great video and I appreciate the fact that you had multiple options of what the fault could be and what to listen or look for. Thanks, and you didn't need to say sorry for anything.
In mines the timing belt was starting to break and was throwing the intake and exhaust vvt solenoids codes. I ignored it and the belt snapped bending 1 intake valve and 2 exhaust valves. The engine was telling me it was sick and I didn't listen 😂😆😂
Good video, I have this code on a family members car but not rattle on start up but lacks power intermittently. Thinking OCV is getting stuck. Also apparently she hasn't had an oil change in over 30k.
For now my Chevy Cruze got the same sound when i start the engine. I’ve already changed the intake camshaft few months ago 😢 and still got this code. The garage recomend me to replace solenoid, i dont know how to fix right now I’m from Vietnam sorry for my bad English 😢
I appreciate the videos you are providing because I have a 2011 chevy cruze eco and try to keep her running well ,the only thing I would suggest is turning up the volume, I had to keep my phone to me ear to hear you fix it tips and wasn't able to watch the videos.
When you say “clear engine codes”, does that mean to disconnect battery for a little bit to reset the system, or do the lights go off by themselves after issue is resolved?

My sonic 1.8 rattles sometime for a minute straight replaced the Phasers from Dealership, replaced vvt solenoids and cam sensors from autozone still throwing the p0011 p0016 p0014 codes anyone have an idea?
I heard that sound couple of months ago and replaced cam phaser sprockets and got rid of codes. But now p0011 and p0014 is showing up and my car is burning the engine oil. What would you think the problem is ? Mine is 2011 1.8 Cruze
I changed my timing belt, intake vvt solenoid, and the sensors, and I still get this code. I don’t hear the noise at the beginning of the video so I have no clue what it could be. Any insight? Thanks!
Hmm, I would start with good clean oil and run some sea-foam with oil to make sure theres no carbon screwing with sensors inside engine. Maybe the sprockets are just starting to go and its not yet making a noise? Hard one sorry man
I’m getting codes p0366, p0016, p0341, p0097, p0113, p11c2 and p2228. Any idea what that problem could be? I get the rattle at start up and when shutting the engine off. I replaced both solenoids, camshaft position sensors and the maf sensor
@@Mr95KennyI got rid of all the codes except for p0016. Is it safe to drive with that code on?My main daily vehicle was involved in an accident and this is the only vehicle I have at the moment.
what happen if i will ignore that? Or how long i can drive with this problem? I need my car right now bcs work, i think after one month i can fix it, is it problem?
The solenoid and sensor should be the same idea but your sprocket is way different, the 1.8 has a timing belt with sprocket outside engine. The 1.4 has timing chain with sprocket inside engine.
What all was your symptoms with the sprockets? Mine makes a weird noise at startup and goes away in a few seconds, I have codes p0016 and p0420 and I’m losing speed on hills.
@@suleymanbas7671 P0011 is a generic OBD-II trouble code that indicates the camshaft timing is over-advanced, or above the threshold. It can appear on any vehicle with an OBD-II system, but is related to variable valve timing (VVT) or variable camshaft timing (VCT) components. Symptoms of code P0011 include: Rough engine running, Difficulty starting, Poor idling, and Increased likelihood of stalling. Some possible causes of code P0011 include: Off camshaft timing, Stuck open valve control solenoid, and Faulty or damaged wiring in the valve control solenoid system. While code P0011 usually doesn't mean your car will become undrivable, it's best to check out the issue as soon as possible to avoid more serious engine damage. Here are some things you can try to diagnose and fix the problem: Use an OBD scanner to retrieve the trouble code by connecting it to your car's OBD port Visually inspect the VVT solenoid and wiring for any damage or loose connections Check the oil level and quality to ensure the engine has the correct amount of clean oil with the right viscosity Consider replacing the VVT solenoid if it's faulty Check the camshaft position sensor for faults Inspect the timing chain or belt for wear
Hey so my code said p0011. Would this affect the idle of my car at all? Been having terrible idling with air on and rpm’s aren’t acting normal. I know they dance more with the air but this is abnormal forsure. Also does it affect my acceleration? Been having really slow pick up almost like my car is choking?
I think these cars are pieces of s*** mine freaking knocks like crazy on the top end I've changed out a lot of s*** in it and it's still knocking like a freight train I think I'm going to drive this thing over a cliff and then only buy a new car that's what I think about Chevy
Bro, this is the only video I could find to explain the problem I’ve been having for months. THANK YOU
U had these Two Codes To?
I’m having the same problem right now same two codes. I’m pretty sure it’s the going to be the same issue he had

Great before and after videos. Really helps diagnosing. Thanks for the video!
I really really appreciate your help. I just replaced both sprocets and that solved my noise on startup.
Very helpful and straightforward. Appreciate the explanation. 👍
I have this code on my malibu . Car runs fine. Mechanic said possible timing chain replacement for 1000.
BIG ADVISE..WHEN YOU CHANGE THE SOLENOID ITHER ONE CRANKSHAFT O INTAKE .. DISCONNECT THE BATTERY..

Thank you, yes this video was actually two video i put together so the sound was a bit funny, didn’t notice till after posting!
@@Mr95Kenny why is the reason you've replaced the vvt solenoid? Did you had check engine light?
I was hoping it was the solenoid as that was easy to replace, turned out to be the sprocket.
@@Mr95Kenny ah ok.. yeah the problem with these cruze is the sprockets
Me too.
Thanks for sharing... Hi from México
Awesome video
Changed my sprockets and still p0011
How was your performance? Mine has crappy acceleration and it also rattles
Just rattled at start up, once running was normal
Same here, did you fixed it.
When you say “clear engine codes”, does that mean to disconnect battery for a little bit to reset the system, or do the lights go off by themselves after issue is resolved?
Thank you!!
Thank you
I have codes p0340 and p0341. My car makes the same noises as yours. What sensor are those referring to?

I hear a leak on mine, same codes but I hear like air leak. Could that be the solenoid

Mine is 2011 1.8 Cruze
Maybe the solenoid? But if its now burning oil… i honestly don’t know, but them codes are saying something isn’t in time.
Hopefully not a dumb question, but Seafoam in the gas tank or directly into the engine?
Engine
Goodnight. My car makes the same noise when I start it in the morning. Is the solution to change the toothed pulleys?
Thank you very much.
The VVT sprockets yes

Both

Thats a lot of stuff, but mostly camshaft and air intake. Take it in and get diagnostic

If the engine light isn’t flashing than you can drive vehicle
I have the same codes i have a 2015 chevy cruz ls i keep getting could p0011 p0016 it run very bad loose power when driving
Did you get it fixed? I have same codes. Power loss and stutters
what happen if i will ignore that? Or how long i can drive with this problem? I need my car right now bcs work, i think after one month i can fix it, is it problem?
Probably fine, i bought the car used and drove a month or two before i figured it out and fixed it, no idea how long it was going on before me.
No hay traducción al español???
I have a 1.4 T/C engine on my Chevy Cruze. Is it the same procedure? I don't see the same parts for that engine

Really just the start up sounds
me too mine makes a weird nouse when i start a car then sometimes lose speed
@@saruulcinematic5758 same problem. What is the solution?
Hola aporque al conectar ese sensor el auto me vuelve hacer lo mismo no tiene potencia y si lo dejo suelto anda bárbaro necesito que me ayuden
No oblo espnol
Can u explain@@Mr95Kenny
Are u fix that
Leave it loose than, but i honestly don’t know
I have the P0016. Is that referring to the intake or exhaust side?
Intake
If I change my vvt sprockets does it take the car out of time? I have 11cruze
The sprockets and everything have arrows on them for the right timing
Great fucking video
My sensor is reading 8.3 ohms does it mean its bad?
7.9 is the high, thats just a little higher than that, i would try replacing.
What’s the size of the bolt if you loose it
Idk. Go to dealership parts counter and they can help you!
@@Mr95Kenny GM Part 11100321 torx M5x12
Dose the issues make Power loss ?
No it’s mostly just start up noise that can lead to damage
So was the p0016 fix the VVT exhaust side?
P0016 is intake side. P0017 is exhaust.
P0011 Which piece is it?@@Mr95Kenny

Do both solenoids use the same part??
Yes
I think so
How much driving?
This happened around 170,000. Im almost at 200,000 miles now

Would this affect the idle of my car at all?

I know they dance more with the air but this is abnormal forsure.
Also does it affect my acceleration?
Been having really slow pick up almost like my car is choking?
Hmm, is everything normal with air off? Does the engine start smoothly at startup?
is the problem solved
What are the symptoms for the vvt solenoid?
Don’t really know sense my real problem was the sprockets
