R56 Timing issue?
Timing issue?
I was fixing oil leaks on my 2009 1.6 S hatchback and since it was in Service Mode I also replaced the timing chain. I used all cam and crankshaft locks and rotated the engine 4 times and the locks and pin went back in easily. I had taken a pic of the cam lobes before I started and it is back just as it was, but when I tried to start it up it initially sputtered but then just continued to turn over without any sign of life. I let it sit for a while and tried again and it acts like it's trying to fire but never does. It has one code P15E8. Any ideas would be appreciated.
