vtc solenoid gasket for p1145

[N4Spd]

hi everyone,

I bought the vtc solenoid but it didn't come with a gasket.

Should there be a gasket and can someone please post the steps they used to place it?

It's to replace the driver's side solenoid for a p1145.

thanks,rob

Hello everyone, new guy, new owner of an 01 Pathfinder.. Had it 6 weeks and the SES light came on. I took it to my local mechanic. He hooked up a code reader and it threw a P1145.

I've been reading these forums on this and now I'm confused. Is it a sensor or a solenoid or both? I can change the parts if I know exactly where it's at on the engine.

I've read that P1145 is on the drivers side, forward but, I don't know if it installs from the front or at an angle on the cam.

Plenty of chatter on the sensor but not a lot on the solenoid i.e. part numbers..

Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

This varible timing issue has plagued my truck since I bought it used with 30,000 miles on the engine. it now has 55,000 miles. Under extended warrenty they replaced both solnoids and I have replaced one sensor. On my truck coded P1110 and P1135 were solnoids and code P1140 was a sensor. I understand that the computer doesnt necessarly send these codes in that order for this failure but the even number coded p1140 and P1110 are for Left hand Bank 1 which is Passengers side. P1135 and P1145 are for right hand bank 2 which is driverside. LH and RH are standing at the front of the truck looking at the engine not from the drivers seat. I am almost convinced this is an oil issue not a sensor or solonoid issue. I now run 5w-30 Mobil 1 synthetic oil and this issue seems to be gone for now. Hopefully forever Dont let your oil get dirty.What I dont understand is why this is a problem with 2001 and not anything made in 2002 and later. What did nissan change or did they do a software fix?
