Yep, this happens when the oil control valves for the VVT system are stuck open and will not control the oil flow. Do you know the code number so we can see which camshaft is over advanced? Here are the locations of the camshaft timing actuator control solenoids. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
