Follow up on the vanos error; I haven’t heard of them getting stuck before but too bad bank two; bank one you could probably unstick from the oil fill port.
That said, you might also unstick by manually turning the crank bolt counter clockwise a bit (I don’t know if you will break anything turning the engine backwards so I wouldn’t go more than 45° or so, just enough to try to twist the inside of the vanos backward against the cam lobes. (It doesn’t take much force to manually turn the vanos under normal conditions by hand, not sure if the vanos will move from pushing on the cam side vs twisting from the inside with the pin holes made for setting them to zero for timing but it’s worth a shot.
Will your scanning solution let you read real-time vanos angles ?
