Codes its throwing are p0340 p0341 p0345 p0346.
A year or so ago my car started running rough intermittently and I blew the oil out of the Camshaft actuator plugs (2 were full) and that fixed the problem. Fast forward to this week and all the codes are back, and the car will run rough and make a what I would call "valve clattering noises" that will come and go randomly. Blowing out the plugs didn't change anything. Are the acutators the most likely culprit? Replacing them seems pretty straight forward from what I can find (will post procedure below) Am I on the right track or is there something else I should look for first?

These are the actuators I'm talking about. There are 4 total 1 per cam.
