These remain loose until the valve cover is tightened down then they get tightened down. With new seals on the upper timing chain cover and valve cover it can scew where the camshaft position sensor is in relation to the camshaft position sensor wheel.
I suggested that you do this on my second post on the first page. I indicated that I have done this procedure on my 4.4L BMWs and 4.6is. Once you get it down to just one code on a bank and the timing is spot on then you can adjust the degree timing sensor wheel. It's all part of the intricacies of the M62 engine
