P2DF1Intake Valve Lift Range/Performance Bank 2

P2DF1 indicates that the powertrain control module has detected an out-of-range or performance fault in the intake valve lift system for bank 2, which is the side of the engine that does not contain cylinder number one. The computer monitors the variable valve lift actuator and its position feedback, and it sets this code when the commanded lift does not match the actual measured lift within a calibrated tolerance.
