Help with engine code (GIAC stage 1)

Has anyone ever seen the code 0015? I'm getting this code with a regular OBD-II reader and the service engine soon lamp is lit. Thanks.

Also see other threads where P0015 is from the camshaft position sensor. Do a google on it.

Take it to the dealership. They will fix it. Looks like a fault actuation solenoid. Not entirely uncommon. And a pretty easy/quick fix. Might want to take it to a shop that has GT1 just in case there are any hidden codes as well.
