Hello. Which solenoid are you wanting to replace, the intake or exhaust? Codes P0010 looks to be the intake camshaft solenoid and P0013 is the Exhaust, they are both on the same side of the valve cover, you will need to remove the engine cover so you can see the valve cover, Ill post a diagram, and it will show you both solenoids and where they are.

Diagrams 1,2 are to replace the Exhaust VVT solenoid (P0013), and diagrams 3,4 are for the Intake VVT solenoid (P0010).
