Hi I have a 2009 Chevy Traverse 89, 000 miles the code p0017 comes up crankshaft position, camshaft position correlation bank 1 sensor b. The check engine light usually comes on after I put in gas for a couple days then is off for about a week or two sometimes the check engine light comes on out of nowhere and then is off the next time I start vehicle any information about what it exactly means and how to fix would be greatly appreciated thank you

That code indicate that the Bank 1 Exhaust cam is out of synch with the other three.
This diagnosis may not be for you.

* Inspect the engine for any recent engine mechanical repairs. An incorrectly installed camshaft, camshaft actuator, camshaft sensor, crankshaft sensor, or timing chain can cause this DTC to set.
* An actuator that is in the full advance or retard position can cause this DTC to set.
* The presence of DTCs P0008 and P0009 along with P0016, P0017, P0018, and P0019 indicates a possible condition with the primary timing chain and the alignment between both intermediate sprockets and the crankshaft. Or, the crankshaft reluctor wheel has moved and is no longer referenced to top dead center (TDC).
* Observe the scan tool CMP Desired, Actual, and Angle Variance parameters before a DTC sets. This may help to isolate whether a condition is specific to one camshaft, one bank, or caused by a condition with the primary crankshaft timing.

Yep, it is very important to maintain clean oil when you have a VVT system.

I'll close this now as solved.
