Thank you so much brother, I saw this and saw it was recent and rejoyced. Thank you for making this in-detail video, Ill let you know if it fixed my problem.
To me a major issue would be an engine or transmission failure. Is that what you mean? Overall, I am happy with the car and have had it since new. It does burn about a quart of oil every 800-1000 miles so I have to stay on top of that and make sure you check the oil level at least every tank of gas and preferably after it's been sitting for a while. I have also had to replace a bunch of sensors. Temp sensor, this oil pump valve sensor, camshaft solenoids. Under warranty, the dealer replaced the water pump and high pressure fuel pump, which is in the engine bay. My instrument cluster had to be sent out for repair. I have an important video for that if you run into intermittent issues with it. Do not get a new one or used one! Have circuit repair medics fix it! I am pretty good and knowledgable with cars, so this stuff would likely frustrate someone else, but I fix most of this stuff within a day or two so not a huge deal and mostly it's trouble free and runs well.
High. Great video by the way. I have a p06de solenoid valve stuck on. The engine light comes on and off. It comes on only when ive been driving the car more than 40 min. Does this sound similar to what you were going thru
@@realplexent I looked into this a bit last night and it appears that your error could also be due to this part and not the oil pressure sensor. So it looks like you might be safe to replace the pump control valve solenoid
@rohanboswell5408 I didn't have de error, just dc and swapping this part fixed it. De might also be fixed with this part or it could need an oil pressure sensor
What are the symptoms because my car makes a noise on cold starts only but when I cut it off and back on it doesn’t do it but when it sit for 15 minutes it will do it and I have know codes!
I didn't realize what video we were in. This is the oil pump solenoid video, and I doubt you would be hearing the oil pump. It could be your AIR pump, and maybe struggling to pump the air through a clogged AIR valve. I have a video for looking into that.
I had a p06de code reduced lower engine autozone told me it was my sensor changed the one on top of my engine odd went away a day later I got 2 codes p055b and p055c took it to Billwalsh they said I had a bad oil pressure sensor located by my starter changed that out and codes still there just ordered oil pump control valve hopefully that solves the problem… also I’m having issues with my auto stop when stopping at stop sign or red lights I replaced the auxiliary battery maybe the oil control valve can cause that idk anyone else having this issue or have you ever experienced it or solved it by chance?
@jameskuster9283 I just looked up the p055 codes and they are for the intake camshaft solenoid. Fix the oil valve solenoid first. If they don't go away, then replace intake camshaft solenoid. It's easy too. Left side of engine on the top. I forget which is exhaust and which is intake (front or back) but there are videos for that too. They commonly fail.
There are a few oil sensors. One is oil level. One is oil pressure. And one controls the oil pump , which is this one. Where did you get the valve stuck on description? Everything I see regarding p06de is about oil pressure, which makes me think it could be the oil pressure sensor and not this. I could be wrong but let me know.
@@brianvangelov3060 from everything i have just read, it seems like it is the oil pressure sensor instead on the back of the motor on the passenger side. I could be wrong but that is my guess.
that's a different engine and generation malibu. I have a 2.5L 8th gen (2013-2015 and only the 2016 limited model with the 2.5L). In 2016, the 9th gen malibu came out with the 1.5L. You might be able to find a youtube video for your car.
@@JonnyAbs-0 no I don’t sometimes there’s a weird smell that comes when I use my AC otherwise tbh the light has been on for months today I just looked into it and found the code
@leewade8568 the weird smell with ac could just be a dirty cabin air filter. You need to change them out at least once a year. It's behind the glove box.
@@leewade8568 I deleted my comments because they applied to another issue. I didn't realize we were in the oil control valve solenoid video. I thought it was the air valve needing cleaning. I don't know if it will cause a problem. I know it controls the oil pump, which is a very important function. I imagine it doesn't stop the pump from working totally because otherwise your engine would be toast. But I don't know what a faulty solenoid causes.
Would have been nice to know how hard the big bolt is to remove from the heat sheild, and after you undo everything, it doesn't just come out I have to prey this damn things free. This is a NIGHTMARE of a simple job.
@@JonnyAbs-0 I was cussing and cussing at it lol I really think it's because it had never been done in 156,000 miles. I do appreciate the video it helped ALOT once I got the damn thing off 😂 😂
@LeatherandLuxuryCarsd yeah that's probably the case. Our car has 133k miles and probably didn't have much more than 100 when I did this job. I don't remember that bolt being tough, but I use pb blaster typically and let it soak. That might have helped. This was a few years ago though
mine is fucking seized in the block... solenoid just ripped off the valve side. great! I love how they manage to continually design garbage these days. It is no surprise that steel seizes to aluminum, yet they continue to build this kind of trash. bah.
Thank you so much brother, I saw this and saw it was recent and rejoyced. Thank you for making this in-detail video, Ill let you know if it fixed my problem.
You're very welcome! Responses like this are the whole reason I do these. I make no money with them; I just want to help people out.
did it fix your issue?
Did it fix it
I just bought a 2013 Malibu with this issue. Just ordered the part. Have you had any major issues with this car? I'm hoping I got a decent one

Subscribe to my channel! I have a lot of good Malibu vids in here and you will likely experience some of the same issues I have.
High. Great video by the way. I have a p06de solenoid valve stuck on. The engine light comes on and off. It comes on only when ive been driving the car more than 40 min. Does this sound similar to what you were going thru
I had error code dc. de might be the oil pressure sensor
@@JonnyAbs-0 oh ok cool. I just dont want to buy 1 part and then have to buy another one. Oh well. Thanks for replying. U got a subscriber
@@realplexent I looked into this a bit last night and it appears that your error could also be due to this part and not the oil pressure sensor. So it looks like you might be safe to replace the pump control valve solenoid
@@JonnyAbs-0 ok cool. Yea im going to order that part. Thanks again
@@realplexentdid replacing this part fix your de error?
Do you have to coat the new one in oil or anything before putting it in? Or can I just take it out of the box and put it in?
I just put it in I believe. It will get coated by the oil pump once the engine starts. It has no moving parts so it should be fine.
Did you have to drain all the oil before changing this out?
No, just be quick about the swap so a lot doesn't drip out. Some will but it doesn't come out with a ton of force. Put a rag below it
Hey Jonny! Have you run across any solution to this P06dc? We're having the same issue with our 2013 Malibu...
Yeah I did the fix in my video and it resolved it
@@JonnyAbs-0 Thank You!
How did you fix your p060e code
@rohanboswell5408 I didn't have de error, just dc and swapping this part fixed it. De might also be fixed with this part or it could need an oil pressure sensor
Whats the name of the part exactly? i have the same problem but on autoparts store there are several solenoid valves! thanks
What I have in the title. Not the oil pressure sensor
What are the symptoms because my car makes a noise on cold starts only but when I cut it off and back on it doesn’t do it but when it sit for 15 minutes it will do it and I have know codes!
It very likely could be this because the AIR system only runs during cold starts
I didn't realize what video we were in. This is the oil pump solenoid video, and I doubt you would be hearing the oil pump. It could be your AIR pump, and maybe struggling to pump the air through a clogged AIR valve. I have a video for looking into that.
Was the car acting like the cat was plugged when that went out? Pretty much detonation when you put it under a load?
No not that I recall. I don't remember any real symptoms. I think it wouldn't be able to adjust oil pressure?
I had a p06de code reduced lower engine autozone told me it was my sensor changed the one on top of my engine odd went away a day later I got 2 codes p055b and p055c took it to Billwalsh they said I had a bad oil pressure sensor located by my starter changed that out and codes still there just ordered oil pump control valve hopefully that solves the problem… also I’m having issues with my auto stop when stopping at stop sign or red lights I replaced the auxiliary battery maybe the oil control valve can cause that idk anyone else having this issue or have you ever experienced it or solved it by chance?
I don't have autostop because I have a 2013. It came out in 2014. I think the oil valve solenoid will fix your problem.
@@JonnyAbs-0 thanks

@@JonnyAbs-0 how do I disconnect the oil pump control valve connecter
Can’t find any videos of it don’t wanna break anything
Hey Jonny, great video. Did that fix the problem? I have P06DE-valve stuck on.
There are a few oil sensors. One is oil level. One is oil pressure. And one controls the oil pump , which is this one. Where did you get the valve stuck on description? Everything I see regarding p06de is about oil pressure, which makes me think it could be the oil pressure sensor and not this. I could be wrong but let me know.
@@JonnyAbs-0 The code is P06DE: Engine oil pressure control solenoid valve stuck on. I believe is the same one you’re talking about in the video.
@@brianvangelov3060 from everything i have just read, it seems like it is the oil pressure sensor instead on the back of the motor on the passenger side. I could be wrong but that is my guess.
@@JonnyAbs-0 thank you for your advice.
@@brianvangelov3060 did you wind up fixing this and if so, what solved it?
what kind of bolts mount the heatshield?
large manifold heatshield or the small one near this sensor?
10mm
One question, is it bad to drive around with that issue?
It's hard for me to say. Maybe it won't pump oil appropriately with it malfunctioning, since it controls the oil pump.
Same location for the 2.0 turbo and 2.5??
I'm not sure about the 2.0T. I have 2 5L
Yes. Same location above oil filter housing.
Hi did it have p06de code
I had same code but dc instead of de. People have said that this part fixes that too
Nice video thanks
So what’s the part number for that?

Yessir! Subscribe to my channel!
DID IT FIX THE CODE?!
Yes
I can't find it on my 2016 chevy malibu 1.5 LT
that's a different engine and generation malibu. I have a 2.5L 8th gen (2013-2015 and only the 2016 limited model with the 2.5L). In 2016, the 9th gen malibu came out with the 1.5L. You might be able to find a youtube video for your car.
Can you still drive your car with this engine code ?
@@JonnyAbs-0 do you believe I could drive 40mins to a hour away from home with it?

look it up on rock auto or you can probably find it by googling it

Thanks for not showing us how to change it.

bah.
Try spraying some penetrant like pb blaster to break the seize
@@JonnyAbs-0 yeah, I've been spraying it with penetrants and 50/50 atf/paint thinner... also tried a propane torch, no luck
Sad video nothing about engine size
2.5L
If you were to open your hood and look inside, you'd see that it's a 2.5l by comparing. The catalytic converter should be a dead giveaway.
terrible video
