2007 VW Touareg 3.6 VR6 Project (Part 8) "Finding The Issues"

In this video we figure out why we are still getting timing errors causing the engine to go into limp mode. It ended up being 2 faulty camshaft position sensors. We test the resistance on the 2 new ones and they are both around 4.2ohms, we then test the original 2, one was a VW and the other was a generic sensor. The VW sensor tested at 24ohms steady, but the other sensor started at 100ohms and dropped 10-20 ohms until it reached 5ohms. I decided to install the old sensors back in and the codes are gone, it looks like the replacement sensors were faulty. Next we replaced the the carrier bearing / support bearing on the rear drive line. With both of these fixes, and a couple of successful test drives, those two issues are now fixed. Next video we will do a string alignment and test the steering angle sensor then a calibration.
