So, I got a check engine light on. Code 132408

VANOS solenoid valve, exhaust: Intake camshaft not in locking position at start up.

Mileage: 40,000 Only drive 5,000 miles/year

Car seems to run fine, no rattle at start up, normal startup, smooth idle, smooth running, haven't asked for a lot of turbo power so don't know what would happen. But I rarely ask for a lot of power as this is my laid back driver. My C8 is for spiritized fun. So:

Is this something I should be concerned about or can I just live with it? And wait for a more serious code before doing anything. If it's just a bad solenoid valve, I don't think it's going to hurt anything in the engine.

That will turn $$ into $$$$$$$$ rather quickly, IMHO.
