car barley running
 
hi everyone please help me out here im losing my mind, last night I was driving my Lexus and I went up a hill
and the car started idling and shaking like crazy and feels like the exhaust was not installed, and the car smells like burning oil.
i have had a CEL for a long time and it was P0430 and i think it is because i have a crack in the mid pipe or by the exhaust.

now after the car started shaking two lights Turned on the ( VSC and the VSC OFF ) + the CEL
i went to scan it and i came with 5 codes

-C1233
-C1224
-C1201
-P0430
-P1349

please help me out guys , and if anyone knows any person or a garage that's in Michigan id really appreciate it.

My brother-in-law had a lot of the same codes but specifically the P1349. That points to the oil control valve (OCV) it's about $25-30 on Amazon. His car ran TERRIBLE and that fixed it!

Look up OCV filter. Take it out and clean it up. Make sure your oil is full and see what happens

I was having the same problem. I just changed my OCV and filter yesterday. Car works great now. My OCV was leaking oil in the connector. I got the new OEM ocv for $55. The new ocv is an updated version, it looks a bit different.
Here are some links:

thank you all , i will order the OCV and try to install it and see if it works

Mine was acting strange like that also on stop and go traffic. Changed the OCV filter and it fixed the issue. Its really easy to replace. Mine had a broken plastic tab from the filter itself caught up in it blocking the passage. Scary. Good thing it never traveled back to the banjo bolt oil feed line hole.
