Chevy Equinox 2014 engine died when idling or at a stop. Happened frequently while in slow traffic. Happened when making left turn across two lanes of oncoming traffic. Error code p0010 and p0011. Problem was caused by camshaft actuator solenoid valve.
Idling rough and stalling at red lights or when in reverse. Check engine light is on with codesp0010 and p0011. Replacing variable valve timing solenoid did not fix the issue. Oil level is good. Approximately 72,000 miles.
The engine died when stopped at a light. This happened after driving a few minutes. Within a week, it started happening more and more often, the engine would just die when stopped at a light or just starting after being stopped. The check engine light came on after a few days. Also, a couple times last winter on cold days the engine ran really rough for the first few seconds after starting. I took it to a dealer and they replaced the cam shaft actuator solenoid valve. I googled and found the 2011 Equinox was recalled (11195a) for what sounds like the same problem. The vehicle has less than 30,000 miles and had regular oil changes.
