Mobilio VANOS Problem

Hey guys, I'm having a problem with my 2018 Honda Mobilio diesel. The check engine light is on and my fuel consumption has gone through the roof! I've got about 181678 km on the clock. I took it to a local mechanic, and they said it's something with the inlet VANOS mechanics, maybe a faulty camshaft solenoid valve or a power supply issue. Has anyone else experienced this? What could be wrong?

VANOS issue on a Mobilio? Sounds familiar! I had something similar happen a while back. Was the engine feeling sluggish too? Like it was struggling to get up to speed?

Yeah, the engine feels like it's lost a lot of power, especially when I'm trying to overtake someone. Is that what you mean by sluggish? What did you do to fix it?

Yep, sounds like the same problem I had. It's probably the VANOS. I'd say take it to a workshop. Looks like it's the same kind of failure.

Cheers, thanks! I took it to a specialist, and they confirmed it was the camshaft solenoid valve, just like the first mechanic said. Got it replaced, cost me about 250€, and the Mobilio is running smoothly again! I really appreciate the help, you saved me a lot of stress!
