Jonne Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 Hi all. This post is about some troublecodes i Quote
Mirez Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 (edited) P0346 is an adaption limit error for the camshaft sensor so either: your sensors knackeredthe wirings damagedthe chains slipped (unlikely unless its been fiddled with recently) Its quite unlikely to be a coil/plug issue - if its receiving a dodgy camshaft signal then it won't be able to time the ignition sequence correctly and hence the misfire codes. Its not a coincidence that 1,3 and 5 are the three cylinders on the rear (bank2) side - I would say you almost certainly have a sensor fault with the rear shaft sensor.

Jonne Posted November 28, 2010 Author Report Posted November 28, 2010 Is the sensor hard to change? Where is it? Quote
Mirez Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 No idea, never had the V6. It looks to be bolted just under the chain cover but I don't know how easy that is to remove - lots and lots of references about to wiring damage around the thermostat area. Quote
Jonne Posted November 28, 2010 Author Report Posted November 28, 2010 OK. Thanks for your answer. Going to look in to it... Quote
Jonne Posted January 11, 2011 Author Report Posted January 11, 2011 OK. So the shop says I have to change the engine... Can I take any other V6 engine and fit it in my car? I mean, would an engine that use to be connected with an automatic gearbox fit to my 6 speed manual? Can I take an engine from any VW V6? My current engine is a 2004. Which year should the new (used) engine be? Quote
