Code P0015 B camshaft over retarded

I've read through some posts on this code issue but not sure which way to go. This is my wife's car just a base countryman R60. Engine light came on and I read the code. It goes away now and again but generally stays flagged. Just as a note it did occur after the oil qty in the car got a bit low. Car seems to run fine however I do think it is a little more sluggish than usual. Do you think a cam sensor would be a good try or maybe a vanos solenoid?

Vanos solenoid could be dirty or faulty. Both the intake and exhaust have the same part.
