Moxie is back!
She's perky compared to how she drove before.
The problem appears to have been the VVT solenoids.
OEM solenoids die in a way that shorts them to ground and that sets off the code associated with them.
Aftermarket solenoids mostly die the same way, but occasionally will fail mechanically so the computer will think they are working and notice it's getting out of range information from other sensors.
They don't fail all the way, so you get a long time of spurious and intermittent fails.
That's our story and we're sticking to it!
The shop put 20 miles into a test drive. I just did 10 running around.
