The oil circuit valve is (13) if that's what you are after.

Nothing on where 13 is pointed

Any special instructions to remove it? Hardly can see it, it turns 1/8 but not moving out a mm

I don't so - it's just a control solenoid.

Ok, i tried myself, but no luck, so lets ask the experts.
Antipollution fault.
When you start it rough as fk and the fist screen of faults come on, cleared and the s3cond screen of faults came, the fan for some reason starts going after 5 minutes running.i believe just when the antipollution fault comes on
For some reason , i cleared the faults yesterday and run like silk just the inlet dephaser fault on , but not very much noticeable.
Today after cleaned that solenoid and changed the oil just in case, well all came back and now
