P0011 code on Kia Soul

This code is generic and does not specify a specific failure. This code could represent low oil level, overdue oil change, restricted or damaged VVT solenoid. Emissions can be affected by a damaged PCV valve, ignition component or a vacuum leak. Would you tell me what you have checked or found so far? How is the engine running (smooth or rough)? Does the Engine Light only turn on solid or does it flash? Let me know how things are going or if there is anything else I can do. Good luck.

In this case, if the cam timing is above a set limit (over-advanced), the engine light will be illluminated and the code will be set. The "A" camshaft is either the intake, left, or front camshaft.
