I don't think many people have dug this deep into these 1.6L but to anyone following I believe this to be the actual adjuster that is on the back of the cam gear that the timing belt spins. Upon further research I discovered that for the 2009 year the adjusters were moved to the back of the cam gears so this only applies to 2009+ Aveos and 2011+ Cruze. Gonna pull the timing belt off again and replace along with a new cam gear/adjuster (GM sells them as a unit) part number 55567048.

I will post once I get this done, and see if this works. As far as I can tell P0014 can only be caused by either a faulty adjuster or a faulty solenoid, and since the solenoid checked out fine it's got to be the adjuster. If this doesn't work my Plan B is to drive the car over a cliff or into a tree. That'll solve the problem.
