    Hi all, I have this car in the workshop at the moment it has been past on to me by the garage that MOTs all my cars. This car has a horrendous rattle from the inlet manifold and its low on power like the timing is retarded or the inlet is blocked. The MOT station has removed the inlet manifold (plastic) and found the valve assembly broken so fit a new one. But the car is still low on power so I got my hands on it this morning.
    The cars details:

    2002 BMW 318i E46
    Vin no; WBAAY72080KJ80333
    ENGINE NO 19 4E1
    SYSTEM TYPE BOSCH 9.2
    Mileage; 32000

    There are 3 DTCs that will not clear
    1)P0366 Camshaft Position sensor B bank 1-circuit range/performance
    2)P0015 Camshaft position sensor-actuator exhaust right rear bank 1 timing over retarded
    3)27B8 Camshaft control function exhaust.

    Live data at idle look ok apart from: Inlet VANOS position 120.0cig that slightly alters,
    Exhaust VANOS position 120.0cig that dose not alter and there are 2 camshaft adaptations readings one at 123.8 and alters but the other is stuck at 9.7cig?
    And the injection time 11.36 ms I will verify this with my scope!
    I just had time to scope the inlet and outlet cam sensors (hall type) they test the same but not synchronized. There are 2 more sensors on the camshafts but I there is no information on Autodata. Any input would be appreciated before I check the valve timing etc next week. Best regards Martin.
