P0011 Intake camshaft positon system performance

P0016 Intake camshaft position not plausible

What set this code is the intake camshaft solenoid where it position the camshaft timing to either the advance or retard. With this code it is a Type B, The engine would run fine, but the CK ENG LT would be on. You can clear, there is a possibility the oil can cause it, only if it was overfilled, With this engine a 5w30 systhetic blend is recommended , What NOT recommended is the 10w30, 10w40,0r 20w50.  for 45,000 this would hopefuly be just oil . If the code return and they are camshaft performance code replace both side as a pair the exhaust camshaft solenoid and the intake camshaft solenoid.
