Intake manifold tuning valve issues

[2014SonicLThatch]

Hi, I have a 2017 Sonic RS with the 1.8 engine. Got a P2076 and saw my intake manifold tuning valve runner had come off at the bottom cause it was worn out. Bought an aftermarket runner and replaced it. Cleared the code. However, now I’m getting P2070 staying the valve is stuck open. Have checked the runner again and it’s still connected and does move open and closed when I send it the command with my scan tool. But, every time I clear the code it comes back. Anyone else had this and were you able to fix it? Thanks

I know this post is a couple of years old, but did you ever figure this out? I have a 2017 Sonic with the 1.8 and exact situation.

Saw some good info in a Cruz forum, since they also use the 1.8. I disconnected the arm and manually exercised the flap. Seemed good for about a week. Came back. I'm about to change the same part you did, although less excited now. The next idea was to run a top end cleaner. I am getting p2070 and p0420 (cat). Always together, so I'm hoping the 2070 fix cures my 420. After these steps, I'll replace the cat. Have you driven it yet?
