E46 2004 318i N46 VVT problem 2a5b
This problem has been really bugging me since I bought the car, So the Valvetronic isn't working at all, Have only about 40% of the engine's power. Changed the Eccentric shaft sensor and the motor. Have tried to reset the motor on INPA yet no change. The fault code 2a5b still shows up, although some time ago a guy accidentally turned on the vvt with INPA and it worked for a few weeks then back again to not working. Please save me.
Another smaller problem is that oil keeps leaking onto the thermostat and the exhaust which stinks up the cabin when the car stops, while you can't see any obvious oil leaks. The rocker cover gasket has been replaced.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.![Bluebiggrin]( "Bluebiggrin")
