Hi all,
This is my first post on the forum. I have a litte problem with my 2010 golf mk6 gti. Last year when i bought the car, i was well aware of the timing chain & tensioner problem. So the first thing i did was buy the timing chain service kit with the revised tensioner from ecs tuning. After that i could still here the rattle sometimes but my mechanic said “no biggie”. At least i can have a peace of mind because it was the revised tensioner.
Okay, now 10 months later i start my car up and i dont hear anything but as soon as i started to drive, i hear the timing chain rattling voor 2 seconds, some sputter and my EPC light flashed on for a second and my dash gives a message with “check engine: service now” and then it goes away after 2 seconds.
The EPC did not stay on and nor did the check engine light came on. i went to scan my car and i only got the trouble code P0341 camshaft positioning sensor.
So i went and ordered the sensor en cleared the code. A few days after that it happened again, sputter, rattle and message. I did another scan and the same message came: P0341 camshaft positioning sensor
Me nor my mechanic knows what te problem is, i get the sputter, rattle thing pretty often now so i dont really want to drive the car, mostly when i go up a bridge or something steep and im going like 20km/h.
Can you guys please help me? Thanks in advance (oh and sorry for the long text)
