Good morning Nostra Jack, or whom ever.
Car has 136,000 miles not KM, automatic. Had new belt water pump and tensioner 35,000 miles ago.
First, did a quick scan per Vag, states is not supported by this car. Apologize, did not get the exact # of code (my bad) but stated Cam crank correlation. Assume this to be cam crank sync issue, I know assuming can be dangerous, feel free to jump on.
Did a DSO pattern and Intake is definatlely advanced IMO, like about 12 degrees and nobody has a good known cam crank pattern so running blind here. All marks on cams, the notches on cam journals and the 16th spacing of rollers, also the marks on the belt pulley and VC are spot on. Cam and crank signature stable just not where I think. I stated 12degrees advanced, could be wrong here just going off info on earlier VW where the cam signature drops dead center of the beginning of the 360 degrees of rotation on the G28, Speed sensor, (crank sensor). Cam sensor supposed to be G40, but only found a G163 per Bently as no G40 showed up in wire diag for AWD motor.
This AWD has an electric plug in on the VVT tensioner (the tensioner) which is stated by Bently not used on this motor. Is my correlation issue in part to do with the tentioner as my sons 99 had a movable Cam tensioner and on this engine the Key in group 90 does not move here under any throttle mode. Also seen another post stating issues with pulley on Crank, might be wrong here, just trying to nail this down.
As a side not was told the cam timing had to do with VW system around EGR, again here say, but would like to know.
Jack, thanks again for all your former support on my wifes beetle, running stellar, thanks again.
