Last year when I needed and oil change I started getting Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid fault codes but had no driveabililty problems at all. I changed the oil and the light disappeared until I needed another oil change.
This time it ran fine until one morning it started idling really rough (wanted to stall), flashing SES light at idle (missing), and hesitating. I drove it for a bit (3 miles) and the light starting flashing (telling me its missing but I could not feel it, it was running smooth) all the time.
I took it home to see if I needed to clean the Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid but after I restarted it if would idle rough but no flashing light when driving so i took it to get an oil change.
I had stored a multiple misfire code, crank sensor code, and a MAP code.
Immediately after I got the truck back, I had not even left the parting lot, the light shut off (on its own) and its been fine now for a week.
Should I be thinking about changing the solenoid, if old oil effects it that bad? It was down maybe 3/4 of a qt, had 7K on it monitor showed 33%.
