P0011 is "Intake valve timing control performance" (IVT) for bank 1 of the engine. There is also an IVT for bank 2, but it causes code P0021.

Bank 1 consists of cylinders 1,3 & 5. This is the side of the engine towards the firewall.

The IVT is Nissan part 23796-8J100 - Valve Assy-Solenoid, Valve Timing Control.
list price $220.20, available on-line for around $166.

Non-nissan part is less expensive. For example on rockauto.com:
part # Dorman 917011 - $110.79

VQ35DE have two camshaft position sensor
:one near the radiator
: one near the firewall (needs to remove the OEM airbox to access it)
: both of them have green tab (to release them: push the green tab and pull the whole connector)
Remove and clean, first those sensor , delete the code using OBD scan tool. If the code reappear, you need to replace those camshaft sensor with OEM Genuine Nissan parts

This is good information, but the op is not having a problem with his camshaft sensors.

I have the same issue before , I replaced both camshaft and crankshaft sensor based on the TSB

Then, replace the engine oil with 5/30w Castrol GTX. The code error resolved.

Remove, disassemble the solenoid and spray it out liberally with brake cleaner.

nothings changed?

Doesn't always work if you don't disassemble. I put 12v to it to make sure it actuates before reinstalling.

sry forgot to mention that, i disassembled and put back together and tested they are both in working order, i also did an engine flush today and put in fresh oil. Cleared the codes, came back immediately

Ah, well, I guess you're an unlucky one that has a bad sensor.

I'd grab some from the junkyard. They're easy to conceal ;)

You shouldn't have replaced the other solenoid. It was working. Put the old one back. That is why it's throwing the random misfire code.
