Р0011 ошибка шевроле малибу

Код P0011 — ошибка синхронизации положения впускного распределительного вала, банк 1.

Что означает ошибка P0011?

Система изменения фаз газораспределения (Variable Valve Timing — VVT) повышает экономию топлива и производительность двигателя, регулируя время, когда впускной и выпускной клапаны открываются и закрываются.

Распределительный вал регулируется блоком управления (ЭБУ) с помощью клапана управления подачей масла (OCV — Oil Control Valve), также называемого электромагнитным клапаном регулирования фаз газораспределения.

Если появился код неисправности P0011, это означает, что распределительный вал впускных клапанов в блоке 1 провернулся больше, чем указывал ЭБУ.

Банк 1 относится к той стороне двигателя, которая имеет цилиндр № 1. Банк 2 находится на противоположной стороне двигателя. Если у вас есть четыре цилиндра, будет только один банк.

Симптомы P0011

• Check Engine.
• Тяжелый запуск двигателя.
• Неустойчивая работа двигателя.
• Двигатель глохнет.
• Стук из двигателя.
• Увеличение расхода топлива.
• Повышенное содержание выбросов в выхлопных газах.

В чем причина ошибки P0011?

• Загрязнение моторного масла.
• Низкий уровень моторного масла.
• Моторное масло неправильной вязкости.
• Неисправность клапана регулировки фаз газораспределения распредвала.
• Фазовращатель заклинил в переднем положении.
• Заклинивание распредвала из-за отсутствия смазки.

Насколько серьёзен код P0011?

Этот код неисправности серьезно влияет на управляемость вашего автомобиля. Наиболее распространенными являются увеличение оборотов двигателя, неровный холостой ход, увеличение расхода топлива и шумы из двигателя. Продолжение вождения в таком состоянии может привести к серьезному повреждению внутренних деталей двигателя.

Инструменты, необходимые для диагностики

• Адаптер или сканер OBD2.
• Цифровой мультиметр.
• Набор инструментов.
• Перемычки (куски провода).
• Очиститель электрических контактов.
• Манометр измерения давления масла.
• Руководство по обслуживанию автомобиля.

Как диагностировать и устранять ошибку P0011

Состояние моторного масла

Проверьте уровень и состояние масла в двигателе. Если уровень низкий — долейте масло до нужной отметки. Если масло грязное, замените его и масляный фильтр. Сделайте тестовую поездку, чтобы проверить, устранена ли проблема.

Провода и разъем клапана

Самый простой дефект — это окисление проводов или разъёма клапана OCV. Нужно снять разъём, осмотреть, почистить.

Проверка клапана OCV

Электромагнитный клапан может заклинить, не работать или установлен неподходящий для вашего автомобиля. Чтобы проверить электрогидравлический распределитель впускного вала, его нужно снять. Обычно он крепится болтом на 10.

После снятия клапана нужно проверить как ходит шток, не клинит ли он. Для этого возьмите два провода, присоедините их к аккумулятору и короткими замыканиями подавайте на клапан напряжение. Не держите питание дольше 1-2 секунд — клапан может сгореть.

Если клапан работает нормально, он должен щёлкнуть, и вы даже сможете увидеть его движение. Если он не щелкает и не двигается, замените клапан OCV.

Мультиметром проверьте сопротивление соленоида клапана, оно должно быть в пределах 7 − 12 Ом.

Если вы покупали машину б/у, убедитесь по VIN, что клапан именно от вашей модели автомобиля. Либо узнайте у прошлых владельцев, не меняли ли они его.

Давление масла

Возможно у вас низкое давление масла. Возьмите манометр и измерьте давление масла. Посмотрите по инструкции какое давление должно быть у вас. Чтобы измерить давление возможно понадобится переходник, в дорогих наборах он есть или можете купить отдельно / заказать у токаря.

Если давление низкое, то либо загрязнен масляный канал, либо фильтр, который стоит в масляном канале, либо сам масляный насос неисправен.

Цепь ГРМ

Возможно растянулась цепь ГРМ. Для проверки цепи ГРМ существует два способа. Первый — с помощью осциллографа, который подключается к датчикам положения коленвала и распредвала. Для сравнения используют осциллограммы исправного двигателя.

И второй — путём визуального осмотра. Для этого снимают переднюю крышку двигателя и смотрят на шток натяжителя цепи. Если он выдвинулся близко к максимальному положению — цепь однозначно растянута и требует замены.

Коды, связанные с P0011

P0171, P0174, P0014, P0021, P0024.

Коды типа B — сотрутся без сканера.

Код типа А означает, что есть ещё какая-то неисправность.

P0016, P0017, P0018, P0019, P0335, P0336, P0338, P0341, P0342, P0343, P0346, P0347, P0348, P0366, P0367, P068, P091, P092, P093, P0521, P0522, P0523.

Эти коды говорят о том, что вряд ли проблема в клапане.

В большинстве случаев ошибка P0011 почти всегда является результатом несвоевременной замены масла и отсутствия технического обслуживания автомобиля в отношении смазки двигателя.

• Здравствуйте, Уважаемый!
  P0011 — Положение распределительного вала, впуск/левый/передний, банк 1, слишком ранний угол открывания клапанов/нарушение функционирования системы. Фазы газораспределения, механическая неисправность двигателя, привод системы изменения фаз газораспределения. Стоит проверить сетку на э/м клапане (можно ее снять на пробу с заменой масла), попробовать сменить моторное масло, для проверки клапана, их можно поменять местами (так же стоит проверить разъем и провода клапана). Нужно провести ряд проверок http://prntscr.com/g76sld

  Казахстан, Chevrolet Malibu

P0011 is a common (and serious) OBD II diagnostic trouble code that can occur in the Chevy Malibu. It indicates an issue with your car’s Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system.

The first thing you should do when you have this code is check your Malibu’s oil. If the oil level is too low, the camshaft actuators won’t work properly.

P0011 Trouble Code: Quick Info

P0011 Definition: Chevy Malibu

The technical definition of P0011 for the Malibu is “A” Camshaft Position Timing Over Advanced or System Performance (Bank 1). Here it is separated into its separate pieces, with a quick explanation of each.

Outside of the P0011 in the Equinox, the Malibu gets this code more than any other GM car. 

Camshaft Position Timing

Camshaft position timing how your Chevy Malibu’s intake and exhaust valves close relative to the location of the crankshaft. The camshaft’s position is constant relative to the crank’s position on vehicles that don’t have variable valve timing.

Vehicles with VVT can change camshaft position timing depending on whether you need power or economy.

Over Advanced or System Performance

VVT allows the engine to act as though it has different camshaft profiles at different RPMs; this is great for both power and fuel economy. Sometimes, the system will get stuck in an over-advanced position.  

When this happens, your Chevy Malibu will store trouble code P0011.

Valve timing control methods can be quite different for every engine, even from the same manufacturer, but the basics are the same.

Camshaft actuators or phasers change how long the intake and exhaust valves stay open. They are hydraulic, which means that they use the vehicle’s engine oil to change the intake valve timing.

Some simpler systems change the cam timing, while others change cam profiles entirely. Here’s a detailed write-up on exactly how VVT works if you’re interested in learning more.

Bank 1

Bank one is the side of the engine with the first cylinder. If your Malibu has an inline engine, you don’t need to concern yourself with this.  

If your Malibu has a “V” engine with two cylinder heads, you’ll need to look up which side is bank 1. It’s usually the cylinder head closer to the front of the engine.

Chevy Malibu P0011 Symptoms

When the cam timing is off, it can cause some issues with the motor. Here are some of the typical symptoms of P0011 in the Chevy Malibu:

• Poor Idle Quality– If the camshaft actuator fails while it is too far advanced, it’ll idle roughly.
• Rattling Sound– You may hear the camshaft actuator rattling at idle speed since it’s not where it’s supposed to be. A rattling sound can also indicate the timing chain jumped a tooth.
• Decreased Gas Mileage– Now that your Malibu’s engine can no longer adjust its cam timing on the fly, it will no longer be able to produce optimum combustion, which causes poor economy.
• Lost Power– Your car’s engine will not be able to produce as much power; this is because the cam profile will not allow it to run a performance power curve when you need more power.
• Service Engine Soon Light- Most of the time, you’ll be able to feel or see one of the above symptoms, but if you can’t, the service engine soon light will still come on and let you know something is wrong.
• Hard to Start– With the timing too far advanced, it won’t be easy to start the motor, especially when it is warm.

Quite a few things can cause the P0011 code in your Chevy Malibu. Sometimes the P0011 fix is as easy as topping off the oil.

Here are the most common causes, presented to you in order from the easiest thing to check to the most difficult:

Engine Oil

The first thing you should do is check your Malibu’s oil. There are three ways that it can cause P0011:

1. Low Oil: The most common cause of P0011 is low oil. It needs to be low enough to lower the engine’s oil pressure (which is really low).
2. Dirty Oil: If the oil and/or oil filter haven’t been changed in a long time, sometimes it can cause the camshaft actuator to clog up with sludge.
3. Wrong Viscocity (Too Thick or Too Thin):  If you recently had an oil change and your Malibu now has this code, change the oil again, and verify that the shop used the right oil.

Bad Intake Camshaft Position Actuator or Actuator Solenoid

The actuator solenoid itself can go bad over time. You certainly don’t want to start here since, a lot of the time, it’ll be something else that causes the P0011 to appear. Here’s a good video that explains how to test and replace the camshaft actuator solenoid on the Malibu:

Engine Timing

If your Malibu’s camshaft(s) are no longer synced to the crank properly (such as if the timing chain jumped a tooth), it can cause the engine timing to be off enough to throw the P0011, even though it’s not the actuator’s fault. Here’s more on that from this site: Timing Chain Jumped Symptoms and Diagnosis

Wiring Issues

The wiring from the solenoid to the ECM can become damaged or broken, this will throw the P0011 OBDII code. The wiring harness to the intake camshaft position sensor may also develop a poor connection—YouTube: How to Find an Open or Short the Fast Easy Way.

Bad ECM (highly unlikely)

If your Malibu’s engine controller goes bad, it may throw this code along with other issues. Here’s how to tell if you have a bad ECM Autoblog: Symptoms of a Bad ECM.

Conclusion

If it has been a long time since you’ve changed your car’s oil, or you find that there may be a reason to believe that the oil thickness is wrong, change the oil and see if that clears P0011 in your Chevy Malibu. If it doesn’t, you’ll have to dive into the mechanical issue causing the code. Good luck!

What Does Chevrolet Malibu Code P0011 Mean?

• Chevrolet Malibu P0011 definition: Intake Camshaft Timing – Over-Advanced Bank 1
• Issue Severity: SEVERE – Stop driving immediately.
• Repair Urgency: Fix this code immediately (same-day if possible) to avoid damage to multiple internal engine components.
• Diagnosis: This trouble code severely impacts the drivability of your vehicle. The most common problems consist of increased engine stalling, rough engine idle, lowered fuel economy, and rattling/knocking noises from the engine.

The variable valve timing system increases fuel economy and engine performance by regulating when the intake and exhaust valves are opened and closed. The camshaft(s) is(are) adjusted by the engine computer through the use of an oil control valve(s) (OCV), also called variable valve timing control solenoid valves. When trouble code P0011 is set, it means that the intake camshaft in Bank 1 is more advanced than the engine computer has told it to be.

How Much Does It Cost to Fix Chevrolet Malibu Code P0011?

P0011 can be caused by anything from old or low oil to catastrophic engine failure. It’s impossible to give an accurate estimate without properly diagnosing the issue first.

If you take your car to a shop for diagnosis, most shops will start with an hour of “diag time” (the time spent in labor diagnosing your specific issue). Depending on the shop’s labor rate, this typically costs somewhere between $75-$150. Many, if not most, shops will apply this diagnosis fee to any required repairs if you have them perform the repairs for you. From there, a shop will be able to give you an accurate estimate for repairs to fix your P0011 code.

Other Possible Repairs for Chevrolet Malibu Code P0011

Once properly diagnosed, P0011 may require one or more of the following repairs to resolve the underlying issue. These prices are based on national averages and include parts and labor. Your cost may differ depending on your location and type of vehicle.

• Oil Change $20-$60
• Oil Control Valve/Variable Valve Timing Control Solenoid $300-$400
• Engine $3000-$4000

DIY Steps to Diagnose Chevrolet Malibu Code P0011

Engine code P0011 could be caused by a number of things, including old oil, the camshaft variable timing solenoid, the camshaft phaser, and more. If you’d like to try to fix code P0011 at home without throwing money at parts, you’ll want to follow the steps below for proper diagnosis. Keep in mind this is an intermediate-level diagnosis and repair and not recommended for beginners. Diagnosis beyond oil level and condition requires more specialized equipment beyond what the FIXD Sensor can provide and it can be a time and labor-intensive process for inexperienced DIYers.

DIY difficulty level: Intermediate

This repair requires mechanical knowledge and is not recommended for beginners.

Tools/parts needed:

• FIXD
• Basic hand tools
• Fused jumper wires
• Vehicle-specific service manual

STEP 1: USE FIXD TO ENSURE NO OTHER ENGINE CODES ARE PRESENT.

Use FIXD to scan your vehicle to verify P0011 is the only code present. If other codes are present, they must be addressed first.

STEP 2: CHECK THE OIL LEVEL AND CONDITION.

If the oil level is low, adjust to spec and test drive to see if the concern is resolved. If it’s dirty, change the oil and filter and test drive to see if the concern is resolved.

STEP 3: INSPECT THE VALVE TRAIN FOR SLUDGE.

Remove the oil cap and/or the valve cover and inspect the valve train for sludge. If there is sludge, there is a good chance the engine will need to be replaced due to sludge blocking the oil passages to the Oil Control Valve(s).

STEP 4: CHECK VALVE FOR PROPER FUNCTION.

If there isn’t any sludge, consider checking the Bank 1 Intake Camshaft Oil Control Valve for proper function. You can do this by removing the Oil Control valve and supplying power and ground to the solenoid quickly using a pair of fused jumper wires. (Do not leave power applied for more than a second or two) If the valve is functioning properly, it should click, and you may even be able to see the valve move based on the design of your specific valve. If it doesn’t click or move, replace the tested oil control valve and test drive to see if the concern is resolved.

If at this point the concern persists, there could be internal engine issues, and you should have a shop diagnose the concern to avoid replacing the engine unnecessarily.

Common Chevrolet Malibu P0011 Diagnosis Mistakes
