Q: Error code P0075

asked by on January 29, 2016

I am getting an error code P0075.

Hello. Code P0075 is IVT solenoid control valve. This valve is what’s used to advance and retard the intake camshaft. The valve and electrical system should be tested for an accurate recommendation. You may need the aid of a mechanic with a scanner to see data and see what the valve is doing. The mechanic may need to perform some electrical testing to give a proper recommendation.
