VW Touran TSi AXW 2005 - Valve timing issue, code 16395 Bank 1: Camshaft A (Intake) - Fixed #

Year of Manufacture *: 2004
Engine Size and Code *: AXW TSi
( Optional ) Scanner Used: Vagcom
( Optional) Fault Codes: 16395 Bank 1: Camshaft A (Intake): Retard Setpoint

Hi

This car has the code logged

16395 Bank 1: Camshaft A (Intake): Retard Setpoint not Reached (Over-Advanced)

We have removed the rocker cover and used the factory tool to check the timing between the cams and also checked the timing belt which is ok.

Has anyone got a scope trace of a good cam and crank on one of these engine that I can compare it to?

I have heard the chain on these gives issues but cant see anything wrong. Is there anything I should be looking for in particular?

Regards

Simon

Hi

After removing the chain cover we found the chain to be slack.

This was replaced and codes deleted.

Attached are in cylinder compression tests, before and after the repair.

Regards

Simon

That is a thing of beauty Simon.

Well done
