Check Engine light: P164E00

"The code P164E00 indicates anoil pressure regulation valve electrical malfunctionin vehicles like Audi and Volkswagen. This valve controls engine oil pressure for systems like variable valve timing. A common cause is a faulty valve or, in some cases, issues with the related oil pressure switch or wiring, which can result in poor engine performance or rough acceleration"

I got this code driving the other day. Is it the Oil Control Valve need to be replaced or tested?

I have a 2019 Volkswagen Golf Sportwagen.
