Could be....
Cam Adjuster Unit.
Located at the rear of the Engine. Has a Solenoid on it that has an electrical connection.
Mine had a problem a few months ago and threw code P0012 (similar to P0011) and my Check Engine light was on. I was able to trace it to the Cam Adjuster by unplugging the electrical connection on the Adjuster solenoid and trying to start the car. Sometimes a few starts later the CEL would clear (and come back later).
The result was that the plastic rails on my cam adjuster unit had worn down / sheared off. The metal cam chain rides on top and under these plastic rails. Mine had pieces break off. They dropped down into the oil pan. Either the screwed up rails (they make the chain expand/contract) caused the code to be thrown or the plastic bits in the oil pan clogged the oil pickup tube which would eventually cause a low oil pressure situation (as sludge would).
I replaced my cam adjuster unit (thinking it was just bad) but did not realize the extent of the problem (broken rails). So after repalcing the adjuster, I had to take it to a shop to basically redo that job while they dropped the oil pan and flushed any possible particles out. They also had to replace the oil pickup tube as the screen gets clogged - not worth it to try to clean. All in all @$1,200 in labor not including the new cam adjuster which is (I think) @$400.
Car has been running fine ever since.
Not saying this is your issue - but it sounds likely - don't ignore it...you don't want crap circulating in your oil.

Maybe open up the valve cover and take out the cam adjuster to inspect. If all good, just replace the cam gaskets. If bad and pieces broken off, get it towed to a shop (leave it opened up so they might not charge you full labor) they will need to drop the oil pan and flush.
good luck...post back your findings.

I can also say that there is some kind of clicking noise on a back of the engine but its not that bad ,but definitively something there,
Car has only 87 000 km

any more suggestion?

Yes.

How about saying thanks to the people who try to help you?

Whats the engine code ?

Hi

1) The Cam Actuation works with Oil Pressure..........If your Oil Pressure is Low you will have this fault code...

2) This model are very common to for Oil pick up pipe in sump to block and cause low Oil pressure..........so worth checking or oil pressure............

3) I know is might sound odd but if your fuel pump relay is faulty will also trigger this fault code..........

4) There are still many more things to check for that fault code but,,,,,,, this is OK for now for you.................
