Camshaft Timing Codes

MrGTI house reference

Camshaft-timing codes on the EA888/FSI engines — P0011/P0010 (intake cam timing over-retarded/advanced), P0016/P0017 (crank-cam correlation), P0341 (cam sensor) — cluster around three real faults: a stretched timing chain, a worn cam follower / low fuel pressure, or a camshaft-adjuster (VVT) or sensor problem. Read them together, not one at a time.

P0016 / crank-cam correlation is the one that matters most on the EA888
