Definitely my issue. I had to order the special tool VW uses to remove it. Car will sound like a diesel when it goes bad. Will throw no codes except mine threw a p0341 code for camshaft position sensor. Exhaust side works fine as vvt does switch.
I have this exact issue my car sounds like it’s a diesel and same code as well. Can you tell me which took you ordered and did you change both solenoids in both cams or just the one ?
@@TheMatt4897 if it’s while the car is idling it’ll be the intake camshaft. The tool you’ll need is a VW camshaft solenoid remover. I found it on fcpeuro.com.
I have had an issue for the past 4 months as well. No error codes. Only pop up when driving and using a generic scan tool. P0029 code. No codes with VCDS
Im getting fault code P0011, took out the oil control valves the one from the intake cam looks damaged could it be the one that's causing the intake cam timing to over advance & not correlate the crank timing?
I have 2014 VW GLI. I replaced the camshaft magnet - the circle part on outside. Can I easily instal the inner VVT solenoid as a DIY? I have intermittent P151E code. Shop said most likely this part but recommended an oil compression test first - probably to rule out oil pump.
I have a Golf 7 GTI perfomance unfortunately I also have this error code p001400 when I put the car on D it starts to vibrate and the rev counter keeps going up and down it goes out I get a message malfunction start stop system I get really tired of this can it lying here?

@@NerdGenius much appreciate it man I ordered the kit from fcp, is it the one that comes with 3 different pieces ?
@@TheMatt4897 yep that’s the right set make sure to turn the opposite direction. It’s reverse threaded.
Mine has no codes but same sound, really hoping it’s this issue, I’ll be checking here soon, thanks for the video
What is the torque specs for the solenoid when reinstalling?
50NM

I see the 1506 kit 😎 just picked up my 6250 kit from laser 🙂👌

I think its easy to do , keep in mind it unscrew in reverse. revered screw, good luck!
Sound only? No codes?
The answer to this question would really help me

Please how to remove the (vvt) oil control valve it's really hard to turn it .i tried with the kit for the calipers but I couldn't do it.
They’re left handed threads
Does this issue has to bring up a code ? Or is it possible that this solenoid can be bad without a code

same here did you solve it?>
No not yet i think the cam gears are worn out
@@louwscustomsza fucking hell mate... you did replace those solenoids and magnets? and it did not solve it
@@PlaywiithMee yes replace them but still get P0011 & P0341
What was the issue ? Facing the same codes with mine changed sensor and magnets already 🙈
