Unfortunately N62s don't have the hex screw adjusters at the back of the valvetronic motors.
But I guess once they're removed, there's no more pressure on the camshafts from the eccentric shaft.
To answer the question about the compression before I did the work, i didn't check it. But the engine ran no problem.
I took off the valve cover off bank 1 yesterday, with crank locked at TDC, and my bank 1 camshafts, both intake and exhaust, were like 180 degrees off.
How that's possible I don't understand. I would've locked the crankshaft with the damper pin when I timed the engine the first time, and the camshafts have very obvious marks.
I had even made a video of how those camshafts are supposed to be pointing.

So I really don't understand how I could've had them installed completely wrong
I retimed bank 1 and did a leak down test, and all cylinders are showing 100% leakage. So I don't know if I bent my valves or what.
If I bent the valves, I don't understand how, given that I had turned the engine by hand after timing it the first time (which seems like was done incorrectly).
I ordered an inspection camera to look at the valves, as I'm kinda at a loss with all this, which seems led so straightforward before
