Holding it by the crank would work but not recommended since the cam itself can jump time when tightening the spool valve back into the cam. I’ve heard of it happening but I’ve done chains on my tsi twice now and it’s never happened. Although I have the ea888.3 which doesn’t have anywhere to hold the cam.
Thank you so much for this video. A garage told me my bearing shells are broken and the chain might be worn and made a quote of more than 6k for repairing. After your video I've replaced both the valves (intake and outlet) and followed your instructions. The valve of the intake was the problem. Now my S3 8V ist running like nothing happened 👍.

(And not all VW workshops are quality, far from it in Australia) Most local workshops not usually associated with VW engine / drivelines, will need to outsource steps of the task to specialists and/or VW, of which each option will be prohibitively expensive. And VW will deliberately make thier services to 3rd party workshops expensive and lengthy, to make the consumer choose to simply have the VW workshop undertake the entire task. And local workshops will have to purchase a licence to access specific data for the vehicle/task and if the workshop doesn't already have a licence.... It's yet another task it will choose to outsource to VW.... So yea, VW are playing thier cards close to thier chest. Different business model to our normally accepted and used one I guess. Which sucks because they are good vehicles but designed so that our local markets unable to use it as it does with non-European brands

I took a look and am NOT seeing what your describing. Cant determine where the mark is on the front camshaft in the video. I know this, the repair performed here solved the issue and it did NOT trigger a cam code afterwards. If it was off even one link it would trigger a code
Hey great video it gave me a lot of knowledge about my car I’m having the exact same problem. I’m wondering where I can find the variable valve solenoid ? And the gasket for the camshaft adjuster magnet? Any part numbers?
The "cam adjuster magnet" is the variable valve solenoid. Sorry cant look up the part numbers for you. (time constraints). I'll bet you can find it all over the internet, but if you cant contact me through email.

Gracias por su video ese problema estaba en un Audi A4 1.8T 2009 y lo pude solucionar gracias a su video pude solucionar mi problema si tiene ese problema de que ya no arranca ese sensor es la solución bueno que lo vi con el scanner antes de desarmar y también vi su video. Saludos. 👍🏻
Awesome. This is EXACTLY how my 107k mile 6 speed manual 2009 Eos is acting. Same codes and all. Upon inspection of the oil control valve it’s exactly like this. VVT is good though. Im told the screen on the bridge is what causes this oil control valve issue. That it’s highly possibly the s teen has come apart from the bridge and can clog an oil passage way. Did you inspect this?
I removed the solenoid to inspect the oil control valve and it was flush, but I pushed it in with almost no resistance, and it did not spring back out. I'm assuming that little cap that holds the spring on the back side popped off, does that sound right? also, when installing the new oil control valve, is there a way to hold the cam without taking off the timing casing? I see the comment about the 18mm spanner, but I'm not sure exactly where to place it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, it has been unbelievably helpful!!!
Hello brother thank you for this video but i am facing same engine but the problem is engine noisy while acceleration 1500rpm I changed timing chain and replaced magnetic vale but still have same noisy engine
I have a 2011 EOS and I am about to go to my local VW shop to fix that damn P0016 code. So you fixed it and then next morning the check engine light came back on again. That's my biggest fear!!! Were you able to figure out why it came back on and what the issue was? Please help!!!
Mine isn't quite this bad at misfire it shakes a little bit and it's throwing the p0016 code and the actuator was replaced by previous owner along with water pump and timing chain mine is sitting flush but it gets stuck in when you push it in and not outwards it does stall once or twice before it finally starts
@@CoolAirVw It does, just replaced it today with new oem chain and tensioner. Still delays to start (6-7 strokes) and P0016 pops up after a few seconds. Cam angle stuck at 28° whatsoever. Could it be the intake cam phaser?
@@Mishellis how did you solved your issue? I have the same exactly problem. I have yesterday changed the chain and tensioner with genuine parts but still delay to start. It starts after 6-7 strokes. The mechanic said to change the whole intake camshafts including the valve control and it costs me some money now if is like that
@@florinstoica5357 Removed the valve cover after locking the timing again since its a cam holder aswell and found that a valve lifter snapped and damaged the pulse ring for the camshaft signal. New camshaft, lifters and finally fixed the issue.
Hi thanks for ur amazing videos, i have problem with my tiguan 2011 2.0 and shows the same code with an low oil pressure is that could be the problem of the low pressure oil too ?
Hassen Fakih. No. The low oil pressure is the cause of the code. Address your low oil pressure problem. Could be as simple as low oil or needing an oil change. Or it could be you need an engine.
Sorry what my prices are in my market are not relevant to other areas. Plus I cannot memorize every price and then quote it in a youtube video and I cannot spend the time to look it up, therefore I do not give prices in youtube comments.
Is this an interference engine, continuing to drive it like that wouldnt it mean a whole lot of work extra such as valves etc would have to be replaced
I have a 2014 passat 1.8t and keep getting the p0341 code. I changed the camshaft position sensor and the timing chain and it still comes up. I have a loss of power and the acceleration sucks. Is the solenoid most likely my problem?
Hi, my automatic 2007 audi a4 2.0L turbo has some acceleration issues. Intermittently from a stop it accelerates very slowly. To go from gear 2 to 3 i see the rpm goes to 4000 but car is not moving fast at all. Going up a slight incline is a big struggle. There are two codes P0016 and P0459. Can this be transmission, turbo, or timing problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Than you.
code p0016 makes it seem like a timing problem. I dont have p0459 memorized. Timing beeing of can definatley make lack of power. Stop running the engine if it jumps time your engine will be damaged. From memory 2007 would have a timing belt then a chain at the back of the motor that goes from cam to cam and its very common for that chain to jump time.
Doe's the oil get contaminated with gas when this part fails? My 2010 A4 has the same exact symptoms as the car in the video. The only codes are that my car is throwing are for cylinders 1-4 misfire and the oil has a string smell of gasoline. It has 4 new injectors, 4 new ignition coils and 4 new spark plugs. All chains,guides and tensioners are all brand new. PS the car smarts and runs smooth until it warms up.
Just took off the HPFS and it does smell like gas and oil is completely washed off the spring on the pump. I think it's safe to say the HPFP is the cause of the problem.
@@j.beltre8028 gas in oil, causes rich condition. Rich condition can cause misfire. Gas fouled oil passes through rings and makes cylinder mixture rich. I'm not saying that is your problem but if you have gas in the oil you need to fix that first.. You can confirm rich condition in the fuel trims.
I have a Volkswagen cc with this problem I changed the sensor and it improved but after 1 day of driving the fault returns check the sensor and it looks like it is not tight as if it were loosening
Hello I changed the camshaft and when I plug the magnetic sensor engine work rough and missfire on cylinder 3.When I unplug it the engine work well but I have the P0011 error code.What is the problem the timing chain can be ?
if it runs flawless at 2k, it hasn't jumped time enough to damage anything. If it jumps time and wont run then chances are good the valves are bent due to contact with pistons causing no compression.
It is preferred to remove the upper timing cover to counter hold the camshaft while you remove the control valve. I believe one of the comments told where to counter hold.

Just replaced the chain on a 2.0T....running rough....though now adaptation aroound 2 degrees....and engine starts immediately(versus delayed start symptomatic of an elongated chain).....isn't there a reset procedure......I saw in a VCDS tutorial an item labeled Reset for elongation of chain after chain replacement, under Basic Tests.....but this option doesn't appear on my copy of VCDS(Have latest version)....its for a 2014 Q5......is there a way to do this reset?
@@daghuey Do you have the same codes as in the video? I havent' had any with the codes in the video that required camshaft replacement. Have you taken the diagnostic steps in the video?
Hello guys. Very helpful video. I am currently trying to resolve a P0014 issue and most possible reason is a VVt valve as some genius guys put 5/40 instead of 0/20 oil and let me know only 9000 km after. I changed oil and cleaned camshaft position sensors who had a small amount of dirt on them. Now a logical move would be to take out VVt valves and clean them as this dirt could clog them also. I have a 3.0 tfsi engine and these valves look slightly different, with a star shape bolt. My question is, should I just unscrew them without any other steps? I mean could I break the timing or I can freely unscrew and screw back the valves without fixing the shafts and finding proper alignment?
I have the same problem but dont know the solution. I have a peugeot 406 coupe. 2.2 16v benzin. The car wont start anymore and there is a leakage from the waterpump. I put the odb reader and there was a code. P0341 I changed the sensor. And still it wont start.
I have a 2016 vw Passat keeps throwing codes for 1-4 misfire and random cylinder misfire aswell as crankshaft position-camshaft position I just replaced the spark plugs and coil packs and it’s still throwing the same codes would this be the recommended next step or is there something else it could be
@@ayyozayy8954 if the cam code reoccurs there is strong chance of failure of the oil control valve or sticking of the cam solenoid (called cam magnet by Vw, I have a video on that) or jumped chain.
Having similar codes like 0016 and 0011. Checked my solenoid and it seems to not spring back when pushed in. (Not pushed out like this video). Is replacing this Vvt solenoid potentially a fix?
Hii I am writing to see what the problem could be with my car. My garage is out of ideas, so i would be grateful if you could put in your views. Its a Skoda Superb 1.8TSI, 2011 model I got a head gasket replaced and a few cam timing chain guides replaced (only the chain guide and not the actual toming chain) The car is running just fine. There is no misfire or rough idle or any visible abnormality and there is no overheating now, due to which i had to have the head-gasket replaced, but the EPC light comes on intermittently leading to an MIL light (check engine light) and the scanner gives the code P0341 (Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance Bank 1 or Single Sensor) Now we replaced the oil control solenoid as well as the sensor. Voltage at the connector is 4.7V., yet the fault code refuses to go away. Plzzzz help !!!!
i have audi a4 2012 with 108k mileage so i have codes P0011 P000A P0016 car cranks but wont start and this parts solenoid inside not outside like on the video i think its good or not also oil little bit ouside . maybe need changed ? let me know please (((
Thanks for watching my video, I cannot diagnose your car but if it wont start with timing related codes I would worry that the timing chain broke and pistons smacked the valves making no compression.
Hey Richard! First of all, great name! lol I have a question about the p0016 code on my CC. I just recently replaced my pcv, because of a lean code. But after, it started to run rough on idle. It may have to do with battery might be starting to die (had to throw it on a charger). I checked the camshaft timing (channel 93), is it normal to have it at 10ish degrees? I recently just replaced my timing/balance shaft chain. The solenoid is new as well. The only thing I didn't change was the adjuster itself since it it looked fine (flush). Thanks!
If you dont have a code you dont have a timing problem. When you say you didn't change the adjuster???? Does that mean you didn't change the timing chain tensioner? The timing chain tensioner is the most likely component to fail. Get back in there and change it.
@@CoolAirVw Oh sorry, I meant I've replaced everything timing related, including the chain tensioner for both timing and balance shaft. I didn't change the cam adjuster. Thanks for the quick reply!
That would probably be the BPY engine and if you have a cam timing code I would assume your cam chain and cam chain tensioner has failed and jumped a tooth. STOP DRIVING IMMEDIATLY! If its still running your ok. If it jumps more teeth then your pistons smack the valves. It would NOT be the same problem as in this video as your car is not equipped that way. Of course get it checked to know for sure.
So the tone ring was filled with gasket maker and the sensor bolt was one thread away from falling out cleaned both up and no more check engine light or epc light passed all smog monitors
It may be possible. the torque spec is fairly low. but as you put torque on it to loosen and tighten you risk breaking the plastic guides. Wouldn't be worth the risk. Its best to counterhold the sprocket either with a wrench behind or with some improvised method.
Hello, I have an Audi A4 2006 ALT, having P0341. I have checked timing marks on crank pulleys, exhaust pulley are on the timing mark, both intake and exhaust cam shaft also on the mark. but the previous owner played around with the solenoid housing, and oil leaking. I recently reseal with silicon, I have no thing to replace, no one in Australia selling this. regard less what I have tried, except and not yet changing the intake camshaft 1 teeth forward. P0341 will show up after 5 0r 7 KM of driving, any advice please Thanks
I don't know what ALT engine is. I doubt it came is cars sold in USA. If its similar to the CCT engine in this video then make sure engine oil is full and check the things in this video and my other videos.

I have a 2009 2.0 tsi mk6 gti with 186.000km not sure if the chain has ever been changed before but i have no sound/rattles and the car runs good the only problem is long crank times on cold start and restarts, is it possible that my chain is good and i just have to change this part?

@@CoolAirVw i’m not getting any fault codes though just wondering if the 7 degree reading is because of a bad (stretched) chain or maybe from this little part that needs to be changed?
I'm not sure I was discussing a sensor in this video. I was discussing the cam timing solenoid, but Vw calls it a CAM magnet. If you do have a question about a sensor then send me a time reference as to when I said the name and I'll listen to see if there is another name.
@@CoolAirVw I understand very well. I'm sorry... I'm still wondering because I have the same problem in my audi a4 b8, the v/v must be having problems and with vagcom it gives me an error in cylinder 3, change the coils and spark plugs and it keeps throwing an error in cylinder 3, that's why I was interested in the complete solution, thank you very much for your help, greetings from Chile, South America
do you know what the part number is for this ? i ask the dealership and they told me the updated part needs a different camshaft because it won't screw in.
so the remaining task would be then to change spark plugs and/or the coil packs to address the multiple random misfires the vehicle has re-triggered the codes for after you changed the valve?
I have the solenoid out and am gonna buy a new one tomorrow but am confused how this one failed it looks same as the one in your video but can you explain briefly why that’s “broken” because in video it made sense but looking at the part it seems the part that sticks up is a fixed piece of metal that never was not sticking out or I don’t see how it could have not I should say
As in the clip is still in the right place it appears and same as a new part but there’s a center part and non center part is held by clip don’t get how center part would have ever changed
Ah I see now I was trying to push it back in by hand because I thought since it failed it would be loose but with a c clamp it moved back in(I’m actually gonna try to use that one instead even though highly frowned upon I bet) I’ll update if anyones curious
@@matthewcollette3424 If it moved out of position once it will move out of position again. Probably once it gets hot. There is oil pressure behind there pushing it. Maybe you can confirm a fix then replace the it later.

You just use an 18mm spanner for holding the cam
Thanks for that. I believe I knew that but forgot it during the video process. Your comment will hopefully be helpful to everyone. Thanks.
Can you hold it from the crank pulley to keep from moving?
Holding it by the crank would work but not recommended since the cam itself can jump time when tightening the spool valve back into the cam. I’ve heard of it happening but I’ve done chains on my tsi twice now and it’s never happened. Although I have the ea888.3 which doesn’t have anywhere to hold the cam.
So if it moves how would that affect the engine. Most of the videos I've seen don't mention that part when changing the OCV

I took a look and am NOT seeing what your describing. Cant determine where the mark is on the front camshaft in the video. I know this, the repair performed here solved the issue and it did NOT trigger a cam code afterwards. If it was off even one link it would trigger a code
@@CoolAirVwsend me the email. I just want to send couple picture.
Hey great video it gave me a lot of knowledge about my car
I’m having the exact same problem. I’m wondering where I can find the variable valve solenoid ? And the gasket for the camshaft adjuster magnet? Any part numbers?
I’m searching online for the correct parts but I get lot of option I’m confused which ones for my car I have a 2009 vw cc 4 cylinder tsi
The "cam adjuster magnet" is the variable valve solenoid. Sorry cant look up the part numbers for you. (time constraints). I'll bet you can find it all over the internet, but if you cant contact me through email.

Wow 232k miles... this owner drives a ton.
Yes.
Just found answer in comments thanks.!
welcome
Awesome. This is EXACTLY how my 107k mile 6 speed manual 2009 Eos is acting. Same codes and all. Upon inspection of the oil control valve it’s exactly like this. VVT is good though. Im told the screen on the bridge is what causes this oil control valve issue. That it’s highly possibly the s teen has come apart from the bridge and can clog an oil passage way. Did you inspect this?
I am very familiar with the screen you mention, but it cant "cause" the oil control valve to fail the way this one did.
I removed the solenoid to inspect the oil control valve and it was flush, but I pushed it in with almost no resistance, and it did not spring back out. I'm assuming that little cap that holds the spring on the back side popped off, does that sound right? also, when installing the new oil control valve, is there a way to hold the cam without taking off the timing casing? I see the comment about the 18mm spanner, but I'm not sure exactly where to place it.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, it has been unbelievably helpful!!!
It can come apart on the back as well. spme of them have a 18mm hex on the cam behind the pully. If not you'll have to improvise.
Hello brother thank you for this video but i am facing same engine but the problem is engine noisy while acceleration 1500rpm
I changed timing chain and replaced magnetic vale but still have same noisy engine
Thanks alot that fix my car

Happy new year! Nice find & fix! Carbon clean or coil pack?
With regards to the "leftover" misfire, carbon is an excellent guess because it seemed to be worse cold.
I have a 2011 EOS and I am about to go to my local VW shop to fix that damn P0016 code. So you fixed it and then next morning the check engine light came back on again. That's my biggest fear!!! Were you able to figure out why it came back on and what the issue was? Please help!!!
I dont remember that scenario. I don't have time to rewatch the video. I have 190 plus videos now. Cant remember them all.
Mine isn't quite this bad at misfire it shakes a little bit and it's throwing the p0016 code and the actuator was replaced by previous owner along with water pump and timing chain mine is sitting flush but it gets stuck in when you push it in and not outwards it does stall once or twice before it finally starts
If it sticks in then it needs replaced.
Can the oil control valve be faulty even if the plunger is not exposed out?
Thank you and nice video!
It can be stuck, Just push on it it should stroke in and spring out.
@@CoolAirVw It does, just replaced it today with new oem chain and tensioner. Still delays to start (6-7 strokes) and P0016 pops up after a few seconds. Cam angle stuck at 28° whatsoever. Could it be the intake cam phaser?
@@Mishellis how did you solved your issue? I have the same exactly problem. I have yesterday changed the chain and tensioner with genuine parts but still delay to start. It starts after 6-7 strokes. The mechanic said to change the whole intake camshafts including the valve control and it costs me some money now if is like that
@@florinstoica5357 Removed the valve cover after locking the timing again since its a cam holder aswell and found that a valve lifter snapped and damaged the pulse ring for the camshaft signal. New camshaft, lifters and finally fixed the issue.
Hi thanks for ur amazing videos, i have problem with my tiguan 2011 2.0 and shows the same code with an low oil pressure is that could be the problem of the low pressure oil too ?
Hassen Fakih. No. The low oil pressure is the cause of the code. Address your low oil pressure problem. Could be as simple as low oil or needing an oil change. Or it could be you need an engine.
Great video! What’s an average price to pay for this type of fix at a shop? Labor + parts? Ball park.
Sorry what my prices are in my market are not relevant to other areas. Plus I cannot memorize every price and then quote it in a youtube video and I cannot spend the time to look it up, therefore I do not give prices in youtube comments.
Is this an interference engine, continuing to drive it like that wouldnt it mean a whole lot of work extra such as valves etc would have to be replaced
It is an interference engine but the cam phaser as long as it is mechanically intact will not allow enough movement for pistons to crash the valves.

I have a 2014 passat 1.8t and keep getting the p0341 code. I changed the camshaft position sensor and the timing chain and it still comes up. I have a loss of power and the acceleration sucks. Is the solenoid most likely my problem?
Its something you should check.
Hi, my automatic 2007 audi a4 2.0L turbo has some acceleration issues. Intermittently from a stop it accelerates very slowly. To go from gear 2 to 3 i see the rpm goes to 4000 but car is not moving fast at all. Going up a slight incline is a big struggle. There are two codes P0016 and P0459. Can this be transmission, turbo, or timing problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Than you.
code p0016 makes it seem like a timing problem. I dont have p0459 memorized. Timing beeing of can definatley make lack of power. Stop running the engine if it jumps time your engine will be damaged. From memory 2007 would have a timing belt then a chain at the back of the motor that goes from cam to cam and its very common for that chain to jump time.
Do you have to remove the timing chain cover just to remove the oil control valve
It might be possible to do so without but I want to counter hold the cam shaft, so I remove it.
Great video 👏👏👏👏👏
thanks!
Maybe its just me i always do the under hood fluid check before i crank the vehicle up
great procedure.
You just save my A6 2.0T
all right!
Doe's the oil get contaminated with gas when this part fails?
My 2010 A4 has the same exact symptoms as the car in the video.
The only codes are that my car is throwing are for cylinders 1-4 misfire and the oil has a string smell of gasoline.
It has 4 new injectors, 4 new ignition coils and 4 new spark plugs.
All chains,guides and tensioners are all brand new.
PS the car smarts and runs smooth until it warms up.
No this part failing cannot contaminate the oil with gas. Failing high pressure fuel pump can.
@@CoolAirVw but the would a failing HPFP cause misfires after warmup and no fault code pertaining to that component?
Just took off the HPFS and it does smell like gas and oil is completely washed off the spring on the pump.
I think it's safe to say the HPFP is the cause of the problem.
@@j.beltre8028 gas in oil, causes rich condition. Rich condition can cause misfire. Gas fouled oil passes through rings and makes cylinder mixture rich. I'm not saying that is your problem but if you have gas in the oil you need to fix that first.. You can confirm rich condition in the fuel trims.
@@CoolAirVw Ordered a new pump today we'll post my results when I install it.
Thanks a million!!
I have a Volkswagen cc with this problem I changed the sensor and it improved but after 1 day of driving the fault returns check the sensor and it looks like it is not tight as if it were loosening
never have I ever...... had the sensor be the cause of the problem.
EXCEPT ONE! That was a chinese aftermarket sensor.
But if its loose tighten it.
hello plz can u tell us whats the main problem cause balance cranks to be seized and make low oil pressure
i do not know. clogged orifaces contribute to the problem.
Hello I changed the camshaft and when I plug the magnetic sensor engine work rough and missfire on cylinder 3.When I unplug it the engine work well but I have the P0011 error code.What is the problem the timing chain can be ?
If it jumps timing is the motor done for? Looking at a car rn with exactly these symptoms as in the video. Above 2k rpm the car runs flawless
if it runs flawless at 2k, it hasn't jumped time enough to damage anything. If it jumps time and wont run then chances are good the valves are bent due to contact with pistons causing no compression.
@@CoolAirVw yeah I went back yesterday and it wouldn't start back up. And sounded like no compression. It happened over night. I dodged a bullet
Does the plastic cover on the cam have to be taken off? Or can the valve be replaced without taking off Plastic cover, many thanks
It is preferred to remove the upper timing cover to counter hold the camshaft while you remove the control valve. I believe one of the comments told where to counter hold.

Hello guys. Very helpful video. I am currently trying to resolve a P0014 issue and most possible reason is a VVt valve as some genius guys put 5/40 instead of 0/20 oil and let me know only 9000 km after.
I changed oil and cleaned camshaft position sensors who had a small amount of dirt on them.
Now a logical move would be to take out VVt valves and clean them as this dirt could clog them also.
I have a 3.0 tfsi engine and these valves look slightly different, with a star shape bolt.
My question is, should I just unscrew them without any other steps? I mean could I break the timing or I can freely unscrew and screw back the valves without fixing the shafts and finding proper alignment?

@@ayyozayy8954 if the cam code reoccurs there is strong chance of failure of the oil control valve or sticking of the cam solenoid (called cam magnet by Vw, I have a video on that) or jumped chain.

Great work does this alsk apply to a 2.5L? Thanks
Having similar codes like 0016 and 0011. Checked my solenoid and it seems to not spring back when pushed in. (Not pushed out like this video). Is replacing this Vvt solenoid potentially a fix?
solenoid (cam magnet) shouldn't spring back but if you shake it back and forth it, the pintle should move back and forth.
I dont think your talking about the oil control valve but if you are, then it should spring back.
Really enjoyed the video man. That engine sounds bad but I'm sure you guys got it lol👍🏼✌🏽

Hii
I am writing to see what the problem could be with my car. My garage is out of ideas, so i would be grateful if you could put in your views.
Its a Skoda Superb 1.8TSI, 2011 model
I got a head gasket replaced and a few cam timing chain guides replaced (only the chain guide and not the actual toming chain)
The car is running just fine. There is no misfire or rough idle or any visible abnormality and there is no overheating now, due to which i had to have the head-gasket replaced, but the EPC light comes on intermittently leading to an MIL light (check engine light) and the scanner gives the code P0341 (Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance Bank 1 or Single Sensor)
Now we replaced the oil control solenoid as well as the sensor. Voltage at the connector is 4.7V., yet the fault code refuses to go away.
Plzzzz help !!!!
Did you ever diagnose the issue? I am having the exact same problem and no mechanic can diagnose it
i have audi a4 2012 with 108k mileage so i have codes P0011 P000A P0016 car cranks but wont start and this parts solenoid inside not outside like on the video i think its good or not also oil little bit ouside . maybe need changed ? let me know please (((
Thanks for watching my video, I cannot diagnose your car but if it wont start with timing related codes I would worry that the timing chain broke and pistons smacked the valves making no compression.
Hey did you ever solve this with your 2012 Audi A4??? I have the same problem
@CoolAirVw if your audi crank but want start its probably timing chain . Replace .
Hey Richard! First of all, great name! lol I have a question about the p0016 code on my CC. I just recently replaced my pcv, because of a lean code. But after, it started to run rough on idle. It may have to do with battery might be starting to die (had to throw it on a charger). I checked the camshaft timing (channel 93), is it normal to have it at 10ish degrees? I recently just replaced my timing/balance shaft chain. The solenoid is new as well. The only thing I didn't change was the adjuster itself since it it looked fine (flush). Thanks!
If you dont have a code you dont have a timing problem. When you say you didn't change the adjuster???? Does that mean you didn't change the timing chain tensioner? The timing chain tensioner is the most likely component to fail. Get back in there and change it.
@@CoolAirVw Oh sorry, I meant I've replaced everything timing related, including the chain tensioner for both timing and balance shaft. I didn't change the cam adjuster. Thanks for the quick reply!
I would like to add that the code, was static, but does show intermittent at the moment.
Do you know if this can be the case for a 2.0t 06 with timing on point the epc light come on high rev
That would probably be the BPY engine and if you have a cam timing code I would assume your cam chain and cam chain tensioner has failed and jumped a tooth. STOP DRIVING IMMEDIATLY! If its still running your ok. If it jumps more teeth then your pistons smack the valves. It would NOT be the same problem as in this video as your car is not equipped that way. Of course get it checked to know for sure.
@@CoolAirVw timing marks all line up just did new chain and tentioner
@@CoolAirVw I was looking at my cam sensor and noticed the bolt has backed out think a loose sensor can cause this code?
So the tone ring was filled with gasket maker and the sensor bolt was one thread away from falling out cleaned both up and no more check engine light or epc light passed all smog monitors
@@Carlos-ip2ir excellent! nice job.

If I just want to change tha valve do I have to take out the chain cover too?
It may be possible. the torque spec is fairly low. but as you put torque on it to loosen and tighten you risk breaking the plastic guides. Wouldn't be worth the risk. Its best to counterhold the sprocket either with a wrench behind or with some improvised method.
Hello, I have an Audi A4 2006 ALT, having P0341. I have checked timing marks on crank pulleys, exhaust pulley are on the timing mark, both intake and exhaust cam shaft also on the mark.

As in the clip is still in the right place it appears and same as a new part but there’s a center part and non center part is held by clip don’t get how center part would have ever changed
