I heard that sticky cam phasing actuators can be "shocked" loose by applying 12V to them briefly...

They can be, a drill battery works pretty well, a small 9v doesn't usually have quite the amperage. You can feel them moving and it's very obvious when they get unstuck. It just gets old doing it a couple times a week to keep it idling properly, that's why not letting it get to that point is important.
