How to fix Saturn Sky solenoid actuator (P0010 P0011)

If you have a Sky then at some point you will most likely face this issue. If you fall into the 85% of Skys that are affected by this problem and have an ECM indicating P0010 or P0011 then this is the perfect solution to completely fix the problem. The skys were great cars without a doubt but the one thing that Saturn skipped out on was the solenoid actuator for the VVT cam shaft control. This problem is referenced multiple times on SkyRoadster.com and there is a simple fix to it. Simply replace the solenoid and your back to normal! If you continue to run the engine with the faulty solenoid it won’t destroy your engine but it can cause issues that you just won’t want to deal with. Pay the $25 for the new part and install it yourself, it’s not hard at all. Here are some links to the solenoid on the roadster forum page. Remember that this problem can happen even if the engine is still low in mileage (my last sky it happened at 50,000 miles and this sky it is happening at 40,000).
