So what is happening is the oil control valve for the camshaft is stuck open or the camshaft actuator itself is stuck, so I would change out the oil control valve, change the engine oil and filter, and then clear the codes once the job is completed.
The P0011 code means the bank one camshaft is over advanced bank 1
Here is the location of the valve so you can swap it out. Check out the images (below). Let us know what you find.
