Thank you for taking the time to make the video. My exhaust solenoid failed on my Malibu at 82K miles. It started sounding like I had jake brakes or a custom air cleaner when the CEL came on. Dealer quoted $287. You also gave specific instructions on how to disconnect the wiring connector (3:15). Cleared code with OBD2 Scanner. Fuel mileage shot back up immediately. Thanks again, sir!
You can also disconnect the battery for about 5 minutes and the check engine light should go off if you have already changed the solenoid. 👍 Worked for me anyway.
This is a great and helpful video! Took the malibu in and got a quote, mechanic said $1300 to fix this issue 🤣 part was $55 and took 15 min to change. Thanks!
Well is recommended to replace both as they get dirty as well, other wise if you replace one shortly after you will have to replace the other one. I have a 2014 Chevy malibu and pretty much replaced almost all the sensors. If you have any questions, shoot me a text, and I'll be more than happy to help
I totally agree with you. However Be careful as to not to drop anything(accidentally) in that oil filler while you are working on it. Dirt can easily get in. Good luck!
You are welcome! I hope this helps! I leaned that sometimes the same check engine code comes up for different issues. Here is an alternative fix: th-cam.com/video/gbACkPvNyrY/w-d-xo.html
I thought your diagnostics said it was the rocker arm oil control solenoid? What you changed are the VVT solenoids. And the Rocker Arm Oil Control solenoids had a special coverage "warranty" from GM under certain circumstances. FYI
My car is doing a very small skip/shudder in 3rd and 4th gear. The ONLY code that keeps coming up is P2646 (15’ Malibu LT 2.5). I changed the oil and it started driving a little better, but it’s still doing that random skip/shudder (it’s ugly). Any suggestions? Again, no other code comes up and when i turn the car off, the engine light goes away and the car is fine. Not sure what to do.
Hey there, sorry to hear about your car. So 1st thing I suggest is to check the related fuses, some of these cars have a fuse for related oxygen sensors, rocker arm actuator system, and related sensors. Just pull you owner's manual and start checking every single fuse or just related fuses. If any related fuse is bad, replace it. Also replace your Air filter if it is bad or dirty. If you had the Air filter for more than 10-12K miles just go ahead and replace it. It only costs $10-$20 or so. Since it ran little bit better after oil change, the problem seems to be the dirty, or clogged solenoids, valves, and sensors. So I would also pour in about 5 ounces of Seafoam or Gumout into the engine run it for 20-30 highway miles or so and then do another fresh SYNTHETIC oil change. This might help, but you have to spend $30-$50 on this one. Here is one video where it helped my car after I changed the "Oil Control Valve" on the engine. So here it is: th-cam.com/video/gbACkPvNyrY/w-d-xo.html How many miles do you have on your Malibu? I hope this helps, let me know how it goes. Good Luck!!!
@@fixit3879 my Chevy dealership where I live in Louisiana wants $108 for this part and also I brought it to a shop just to see how much they would charge to put it on they say $360😱 hell no!! I watched yur video how Yu said Yu put yours on ND it looks pretty easy So I'm thinking about doing it myself but I'm kinda scared! I Kno I need it done but I don't have $360 to gv for smthng dat won't even take 30 mins to put on! I saw the part online Wut do you think about online purchasing the part? Also wut will happen if I don't get it done soon my car is a 2014 Malibu with 124,000 miles due to job travel
Wow! My 14 Malibu has a stall issue that the dealership had to contact GM over. They said the problem was the "intake camshaft actuator". The dealership told me it costs $330 for parts, labor and tax!
@Rich A ours ran fine until we got to a redlight and autostop kicked in. Then it would try to restart the engine and shut down completely. We replaced the intake and exhaust solenoid, worked great (until my wife totaled it 4 months later 🤣)
That’s strange because that part is a ENGINE VARIABLE TIMING SOLENOID. The CAMSHAFT SENORS A/B BANKS are small plastic plug looking. Codes P0016/P0017 is the manufacturer’s EU ID#. Those 2 parts in the video are filterers and sliding slot valves for timing of the cam lobe and spark firings DURALAST TS1191. I know because I have a 2015 CM with the 2.5 liter Eco TRASH. I had trouble with check engine light from TIMING CHAIN SLACK,PCV FRESH/ SECONDARY/SPARK SEQUENCE/ACCELERATOR THROTTLE POSITION/LOW OIL PRESSURE/ REDUCE ENGINE POWER/HIGH O2 and EXHAUST O2 and RESONATOR SENSOR oh yea my head lights, both brake lights and the turn signals along with the battery all started and went bad at exactly 105k mile marker. I change my oil, brakes, fuel filter and maintenance of all my vehicles in scheduled maintenance . This is the only GM vehicle in my entire life. I am a FORD AND TOYOTA MAN. This vehicle is a highway vehicle and it’s a piece of SHIT. I have a FORD MUSTANG 1990 is a hot rod with BOOST 1656HP,FORD EXPE 4.6 has 187K miles and Lexus GS460 has 134k milesNo problems with any BUT THIS ECO TRASH is a SHIT Pile.
That's what I said! LOL. Those aren't even the Rocker Arm oil control valve solenoids. The the VVT solenoids. his codes probably came back on after driving it for a bit because disconnecting the battery would have cleared the codes temporarily.
@@joifullyfit i thought it did but then the check engine came back so I changed the engine variable timing oil control valve the check engine was still on but after driving it for a bit it went away on its own
I replace both of those valves Intake and exhaust Solenoid , Light came back on after 15 miles.... The intake rocker arm solenoid in the center of valve cover is my next try... I been looking for info on P16d0 This is what came up on alldata = Remove the Q25 Rocker Arm Solenoid Valve. Verify the following conditions do not exist: Torn, restricted, mis-positioned, or missing screens at the rocker arm solenoid. Engine oil leak between the cam cover and the rocker arm solenoid. Oil seepage at the rocker arm solenoid connector. I replaced the wrong solenoids ,
Sorry that you are having tough time with it. How many miles do you have on yours? Here is the video that helped me with my P16D0 code. Once I replaced the oil control valve, it fixed the P16D0 code. th-cam.com/video/gbACkPvNyrY/w-d-xo.html Sometimes the same code can be thrown off for 10-15 different problems and it can be hard to pinpoint the solution.
Thank you for sharing. Honestly I am not sure about this one. Do you have check engine code? How does the car run? How many miles do you have on it? Is the engine oil fresh? It is possible the timing belt may be worn, but it can also be few other things....
No not growl or noise. It was fine after I fixed the code and replaced the intake solenoid valve. However 2 months later same code re-appeared. This time I had to replace an “Oil Pressure Control Valve” and it fixed the shakiness at 35-60 mph speed. The oil pressure valve part coast around $98. There 2 fixes that I found out so far. Replacing the oil pressure control valve helps too. And please people use synthetic oil now. These modern cars the conventional oil is messing up all the valves and tiny engine components from my personal experience. And do change oil frequently without delays....
Maybe so. But the problem with synthetic blend is we don’t know how much of it has synthetic oil in it. So most mechanics suggest using synthetic oil on these modern cars. I personally switched to Royal Purple premium Synthetic oil a year ago for ALL my cars. I can go 10-12K miles on Royal Purple. I love it. So my opinion is using synthetic oil is better than using synthetic blend. Good Luck!
Honestly nothing except for the check engine light was on and it gave the P16D0 code. However at times I felt mild vibrations at certain speeds around 35-40 mph throughout the car. It would come and disappear.... hope this helps.
FixIt Do you have a write up for replacing the oil control valve? Keep getting p16d0 code, I replaced the intake rocker arm solenoid but the code still remains.
See my reply from 2 years ago.. This guy didn't know what he was doing. I'm a mechanic with 20 years of diagnostic experience. He replaced the wrong part.
Hello Bruce. Any local Chevy Dealership will have that connector at their Parts department. If they don’t have it they can order one for you. Just check with the Chevrolet Dealership, any dealership is fine. Just the socket ranges from $5-$15. Sometimes if it is an entire wiring harness then it may Range $20-$150. Hope that helps. Good luck!
Bruh I've replaced this exact thing and I still have a check engine light. I believe it's actually the variable timing control valve, not the intake solenoid like the code says.
Guys if the P16D0 Code still persists, here is an alternative fix where you can replace your "Oil Control Valve". th-cam.com/video/gbACkPvNyrY/w-d-xo.html
For anyone watching this in 2021, Chevy has released a special coverage for 2014 Malibus for this code and a couple others: static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2020/MC-10177367-9999.pdf
Nicholas, thanks for the information. Replaced mine at 137K Outside the 120K warranty but this is a none issue from GM. After purchasing 8 GM vehicles lets see if they stand by the product.
The code P16D0 is for the Intake rocker arm solenoid valve 2 stuck off. The solenoid you replaced is for theVariable Valve Timing system and NOT the rocker arm control system. The intake rocker arm solenoids are in the center/back side of the valve cover. You replaced the wrong part that had nothing to do with your code. Maybe know what you're doing before posting a video on TH-cam because who knows how many people replaced the wrong part because of your video. You really should take this video down so more people don't waste their time and money.
He replaced the right one the code is pc16 for some reason it comes up wrong in autozone computer for pc16 as the intake rocker arm which is p16d0. How I know. I’m a mechanic and just had to change mines. He did a good job tho. It’s only a 5 min job thanks.
What you are saying is half true...Manual says to replace the Q25 Rocker Arm Solenoid Valve but there are many confirmed fixes of intake timing actuator solving problem.
Rockauto is the place to go i got a p0010 pr whatevs it's a crankshaft actuator position sensor failed at about 80K so did some research and they usually fail at this mileage so I ordered both and oil and filter because oil usually clogs these but everything walmart oil $22 stp oil filter $10 and solenoids acdelco oem $34 and $37 and then 2 day shipping parts all together like $100 my mechanic quoted me $100 for install
That sounds great. Walmart does have the best price on oil and filters most of the time. And $100 for install is not too bad. I know some mechanics charge $50 for installation, small shops or individuals. Thank you for sharing! Good Luck!
Stealership quoted me $300 for this job and oil change with my own parts provided geez this would take 30 minutes at most just do engine c9ver take off and replace then do oil change lol
i had this fixed today and my light came on again after 2 turn off/ turn ons even after clearing. i dont understand why, nothing else is wrong with the car
The same code P16D0 can come on due to oil control valve failure as well. Mine came on again after 2 months of fixing it and the 2nd time I had to replace the “Oil Control Valve”. Here is the details on that th-cam.com/video/gbACkPvNyrY/w-d-xo.html Good luck!

God! I couldn’t have figured out how to disconnect the wiring! Thanks. I swear the engineers sit around dreaming up these things like puzzles.
Thanks a lot. Dealer quoted 1270$ to replace the intake solenoid. DIY costed me 100$.
The cover being held down with the oil filler cap is an excellent design. If there was a fourth screw people would be complaining about that!
I totally agree with you. However Be careful as to not to drop anything(accidentally) in that oil filler while you are working on it. Dirt can easily get in. Good luck!
