My '01 Pathfinder has been throwing intermittent codes P1110 and P1135 which are the variable valve timing control on each side. The dealer replaced both solenoids, which didn't help. The dealer ran flushed the oiling system, which didn't help. They tested the oil pressure: good. Their current idea is that it's wear on the sprockets, or a stretched timing chain, which wouldn't seem to me to be intermittent -- wear and stretching don't come and go.
The problem is pretty intermittent -- the SES light will go out for a few days, then come back. The freeze frame shows it happens warmed up, 1900-2400 RPM.
135,000 miles on the truck. The oil and filter have been religiously changed every 5000 miles. Oil has been Castrol GTX 5W30. Filters have been Wix.Any ideas?
