287d vanos inlet actuator movement

- Nick at Pelican Parts. Anyway decided to pull the valve cover to check timing. The lower solenoid is oily like its been leaking for a while & when looking in the oil fill hole you can see caked up engine oil like the prior owner seriously neglected changing the oil. I am not familiar with those codes, nothing shows up in my information system. So far, I have not seen any other codes than these two types. Can you suggest whether this is linked to spark plug or coil or vanos solenoid. Managed to get it to run and get to work, but thinking it sounds like these solenoids? Next time I started the engine the ECU was showing fault and engine was running sluggish. Cleaned out with engine degreaser and compressed air. Thanks a lot again! Confirm it is getting the signal to start and the positive and negative battery cables don;t have excessive voltage drop. - Nick at Pelican Parts.
