PR1AWRet is on a distinguished road
P0011 to P0342

Fixed the P0011 by retarding the camshaft sensor wheel. (the right way)

When I started it I erased the codes then did a retest and got a P0342 Actron reader and 71 from my iCarsoft i910-II, Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Low/Bank 1.

My battery is at 12.4, my starter works fine.
I tested the CPS on bank 1 and 2, 12v constant on pin 1 and 12v to .70v on pin2, tested continuity on pin 3 at .1 ohms for both. I used Pelican Parts BMW X5 M62 8-Cylinder Camshaft Sensor Testing (E53 2000 - 2006) | Pelican Parts DIY Maintenance Article It says it needs to be close to 0v, is .70 close enough, if not, why does bank 2 not pop a code? I have to assume the wiring to the DME is good because of the readings.
I removed the sensors from the timing chain covers and tested using a metal piece over the sensor and at about 1/4 inch, same reading. Swapped both sensors from right to left same code.
Measured from the sensor edge on the timing chain covers to the sensor wheels, both the same distance.
Swapped Vanos solenoids from left to right. Tested with 12v and both worked fine. Cleaned them again for posterity.

Have I missed something? I'm thinking about retarding the timing wheel again another degree or two to see what happens tomorrow.
