P0012: what does this code mean?

Variable camshaft timing (VVT), bank 1: circuit or timing out of range

Parts to check, to be confirmed by diagnosis

  1. VVT solenoidSearch for my vehicle

Good to know: Check the oil level and condition first: worn-out oil jams the phaser.

Bank 1: the side of the engine with cylinder 1. An inline engine has only one bank.

A code points to a circuit or a function, not a part number: confirm by diagnosis before ordering.
