MK4 Jetta - Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation

[Summers420us]

2.slow BEV motor. Throwing error code Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation is bad.

Belt replaced 20K ago. Checked for belt damage, it had a few drops of coolant on it from a weepy water pump, but otherwise good shape. Static time is good, so I don't think it jumped a tooth.

Idles very rough and stalls at stop lights. Otherwise it runs great once at speed.

Suggestions?

I am in Clearwater, FL area, so if you know of a decent shop, I would be happy to hear about that too.

I think those have a sensor mounted on the head for the cam position, I could be wrong.

They do have the sensor there, behind the pulley. Just curious if it could be something else before I start tearing this thing down.

How are you getting code read, do you have the actual 5 digit VW code?

If it is stalling, it could be the crank position sensor, as that is the one that is needed to trigger ignition. The other is only there for sequential injection, otherwise it will fall back to batch mode. You could recheck timing belt alignment or swap crank sensor.
