A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles without a fault.
DTC can be cleared by using the scan tool.

Check your VCT solenoid isn't stuck, or the VCT mechanism on the camshaft binding due to tight arse owner not changing oil frequently

[super jumbe]

mechanism on the camshaft binding due to tight arse

Finally you are making some sense, (lubricate)

[smokey08]

I think there is a mesh filter in the head that's partially blocked restricting the oil supply to the variable camshaft solenoid/pulleys.
