That code is for "Variable cam timing over-retarded bank B"
There is a bit of a procedure to follow to find the exact problem with the vehicle, so cost would be very difficult to estimate without having been troubleshot first. Could be anything from the PCM (computer) to the wiring or the actual Variable cam solenoid itself.I would suggest finding a shop that is knowledgeable on Jags to take a look at it.
