Hello BMW technician, I know there is a lawsuit going on with N20 timing chain in NJ District Court This is not a recall. 2008 BMW 128I [0.00] Check engine light DTC 131501. Engine module. And yes the crank wouldnt rotate after being inserted. Yes took off the valve cover 3 times so far. Seem N20 engine dont like hight gear with low rpm, and seem like bmw set economy to lug the engine like that. Im sorry,,,and I hate how BMW has handled the whole problem with the N20-N26 engine and timing chain issue,,,I understand your frustration with BMW and how they didnt take care of this known problem. i took it to a euro car guy that i know he flashed the transmission and that solved the problem, did you get it sorted I, having the same faults. within the BMW Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty and this coverage extends beyond the If the fault code for camshaft position sensor goes away or swaps position from intake to exhaust (or vice versa), the fault code is being caused by the VANOS solenoid. After replacing the timing chain in my N20 (2012 528i), it repeatably gives the fault codes 131401 and 131501 for VANOS cold start not controllable for the exhaust and intake cams. The intake cam had the following desired/actual degrees: 0/-8, -20/-20, -10.4/-10, -20/-20 and -10.4/-10. cover and expose some wires and by moving around stuff they was rubbing together and i had the battery connect at that time too.need some help please thank in advance, Ok,,,,you said you smell gas and black smoke out of the exhaust, and you have wiring harness damage to Dinan piggy back,,,I would think this is your problem the harness is damaged and can be causing your problem with the fuel injectors dumping to much fuel into the engine,,,you can remove the spark plugs and see if they are fuel soaked to verify this problem,,,,I dont know if you can remove the Dinan piggy back and put it back to stock.,,,I hope this helps, Update on my car was other human error wrong timing was locking the camshaft with lobs facing down, i correct it and veh stated up right away..THANKS for taking time to assess me. Risking my good fortune I had to run the VANOS function test again. or can I slowly unscrew the center valve and insert a new one? The oil and filter were changed along with the timing chain. One or more of the following faults is stored in the 130f11 120408: Boost pressure control, cut off pressure rise blocked. I learned that if you touch the neg and positive battery cable together while the battery is disconnected it clears the light. The fault returns when its hot outside and comes back even faster when I turn on the air conditioning. Cheers, Also, I had the whole transmission replaced at 42K miles when I bought it. This time the desired angle was not a constant as in the previous tests. Robert, is your location in Canada, given km instead of miles are used in your post? The oil was black though. Also that didnt make a difference and fault is still on outlet side. My rule if its not broken dont fix it,,,,dont take the solenoids apart ok,,,,the turbo boost fault was related to the vanos faults. Whether the engine is cold or warm, the VANOS faults appear within 15 seconds of startup. I got a few drivetrain malfunctions last week: 131501 vanos, intake, cold start; not adjustable 120408 reduced power mode. The process of deleting the faults and restarting the car was performed many times. He said the technician found this out by putting a scope in the engine but didnt explain it any further, nor did he address what the diagnostic code was for the sensor being on. Just replaced timing chain and oil pump module on n20 13 528i xdrive. If so, can i buy the warranty for a used car now?

Ok,,,,no the sprocket does not have to be in a special position,,,,you have to lock down both camshaft with special tool,,,engine on TDC,,,,you have to tighten the chain tensioner and then you can tighten both vanos unit,,,you should be able to hand turn over the engine to TDC and lock down the camshafts again with the tool and you should be fine after that.

The problem could be caused by the fuel destroying the plastic guide. To set the timing properly you have to be sure the Vanos units are locked its end position, so its moving 1:1 with the camshaft. So far I reset it and it's gone and drove it like 30 miles but kinda worried . Next day scanned and found codes 120208 (charging pressure control, plausibility pressure too high) and 120408 (charging pressure control, deactivation: pressure build-up blocked. Hello!

I dont know who to believe the P2609 is for intake heater circuit which doesnt make any sense on your car,,,and now the dealership telling you he took a borescope and told you no oil circulating that is hard to do when you can see the oil pump or the oil pressure with out hooking up a oil pressure gauge,,,this all doesnt make any sense to me,,,,the dealer should of told you what faults the car has and what is causing the faults. Even though work time labor operation code 61 00 006 ends in 006, it is not considered a Main 176000km is only 110000 miles, that is a shame that such a nice compact power house(N20/N26 that is) can go bust in such young age, BMW really should step up and recall all the affected N20/N26 with defective parts.

I know there has been a lot of people complaining to BMW NA about this problem,,,I think there is a case where people are trying to sue BMW over the timing chain issue,,,one of the problems is none of the other BMW have this problem only the N20-N26.
