gotcha! this could be the camshaft actuator solenoid or even the timing chain on these engines. Both can cause this code.

k, if no noise at all and you don't think it's the timing chain then I would watch fuel trims on the scanner to see if it may be a fuel pump issues.
if you have a scan tool you can do this here.
Ignition ON, engine OFF, command the Fuel Pump Enable ON with a scan tool. Verify the fuel pressure is between 345-690 kPa (50-100 PSI) with the fuel pump running.
Verify that the fuel pressure, after the fuel pump is turned off, decreases to 500-599 kPa (72-87 PSI), and does not decrease more than 34 kPa (5 PSI) in 1 minute from that point.
Still not sure what you need?
Have a certified mobile mechanic diagnose what's wrong with your car, at your home or office.
