P0014 Camshaft variable timing solenoid failure, Engine oil level is too low, The engine is not timed correctly, The engine oil does not meet the manufacturer's requirements, Variable valve timing actuator failure, Worn timing chain

---------------------------The P0014 diagnostic trouble code (DTC) indicates that there is a problem with the camshaft variable timing solenoid, which is responsible for controlling the oil flow to the VVT system. This code can be caused by a few different things, including low engine oil level, incorrect engine timing, using the wrong type of engine oil, a failure in the VVT actuator, or a worn timing chain.

If you are experiencing this issue, you should check your engine oil level and make sure it is at the proper level. You should also ensure that you are using the correct type of engine oil as specified by the manufacturer. If the oil level is low or the wrong type of oil is being used, this can cause problems with the VVT system and trigger the P0014 code.

If the oil level and type are correct, the next step would be to have a qualified mechanic or dealership inspect your engine to determine the exact cause of the issue. They will be able to perform a thorough inspection of the VVT system, the timing chain, and the camshaft variable timing solenoid to identify the root cause of the problem. Depending on the underlying issue, repairs may include replacing the solenoid, repairing or replacing the timing chain, or replacing the VVT actuator.
