this is a big job to check the timing chain idler gear. Or this could be fixed with camshaft adjustment solenoids. Thanks Arthur

Big job Arther as the cam and crankshaft sensors are not aligning meaning stretched timing chain or as said above.
Do you want to do this job or will you send it out?

Even the car is still running smooth. Starts right up. Timing chain is stretch already? Maybe a dirty oil? Solenods itself. ? Will the car still runs normal even with this codes? Thanks again

If you have noticed no timing chain slapping at start up or with acceleration or deceleration then check oil level and condition. Low oil pressure dirty oil.
It’s been successful in some cases to do an engine flush and oil with filter change? So if oil is a slight dirty and old do a flush first.

Still not sure what you need?
Have a certified mobile mechanic diagnose what's wrong with your car, at your home or office.
