Similar problem
I had a similar problem with the same code plus misfire codes for all 8 cylinders. The accelerator position sensor and the TB were replaced. The sensor by itself did not solve the problem. The final piece was the tb replacement.
Also could be the selenoid for the vvti there are two.
I inspected the old tb and it was gunked up, but a cleaning made little improvement.
hope it helps, I am not an expert....

So I pulled out the oil filter that goes to the VVT and cleaned it with brake cleaner and it didn't do anything to fix the problem. The check engine light is still on , blinking now, The VSC and VSC off lights are on also with a rough idle. I had the dealership check the code and they said it was the oil filter to the VVT, Any more ideas?

You may need to remove the OCV and clean the piston this must move freely follow the link bellow it will show you how to test the oil control valve
Check your codes after removing neg batter terminal via DIAGNOSTIC block in engine bay terminal TC & E1 with a paper clip
Dash lights will all flash count the orange engine light only
