Diagnostic Codes For a S80 T6

I got these codes and i cant quite understand them.The codes are Troubleshooting P1332, and Troubleshooting P0013. The codes are causing the diagnostics to mark check engine.

It means either it is slightly out of time or the VVT solenoid is bad. Or something along those lines.

Did someone just to the timing belt?

If the solenoid is bad you might be able to replace it your self. There is only 4 screws holding the solenoid on.

Yes it is once you remove the black spark plug cover by the timing belt there is a round thing attached to a square looking thing. That is it it bolts to the cam cover just over one of the cam shafts.

Some call it a VVT solenoid valve or camshaft reset valve.

To really know if it would need to be replaced you would have to have the proper software to see if working or not.

But usually that is the problem but not all the time it is about a 60/40 it is bad.
