Vvt solenoid how to repair
 
I just went to autozone and got my car checked
the code popped up as P0011 (BANK 1)

I’m a little confused cause there’s 2 solenoids in a Nissan Maxima 2003 a left one and a right one

where is BANK 1 is it beside the ignition coils directly in the front??? that means I don’t have to disconnect anything it should take 2mins

or is it in the back and I have to take apart the intake manifold BANK 2

I really hope it’s bank 1 because I don’t wanna go through all the trouble of taking everything apart I searched online and I couldn’t find an answer

can somebody please give me some insight on this issue

remove solenoid, remove 10mm bolt, pull it apart, spray it out a lot with brake clean can or whatever, reassemble and install

bank 1 is the rear

But the auto shop is charging me $372 when I can just order one and do it myself for $18 I’ll try to do it I already replaced the radiator and ignition coil so I’m pretty sure I can do this too preciate your help anyway

Nearly always they're not broken, but just dirty (you can test to see it actuate by applying power)

372 for what? It's a 30 min job ****ing off. They're all scam artists.
You can absolutely do this. It's brain dead easy.
