Just started the car after removing the intake and cleaning the valves with a walnut media blaster. Got a P0016 code upon startup. Here is the code copied from the VCDS:

I had to turn the engine by hand to close the valves on the other cylinders. Could I have possibly moved the timing belt off?
Thoughts please?

glad its getting fixed.

How it skipped by just turning the crank?

too much force, or maybe a component in there is going out and too much resistance made the belt skip a tooth?

If thays the case I would just do all the components.

I turned the crank clockwise to close the valves. The belt likely skipped on startup as it was turning over for about 30 seconds before it started because the fuel pump wasn't priming with the drivers side door opening and closing due to a low battery.
Just took the car on a 3,000 mile road trip and haven't notice any problems since.
