The cause may be the intake camshaft position actuator park lock solenoid valves sticking in the actuator or coming apart. Part of the valve may be stuck in the actuator.
Remove the intake camshaft position actuator park lock solenoid valves and inspect. If damage is found, swap the solenoids from bank to bank if just one side is setting a code and test drive to see if the code follows. Replace both solenoids if found bad.
