Celdric Posted March 9, 2023 Report Share Posted March 9, 2023 Hey I am pulling the same code for my mk7 gti P11AE00 Cam shift actuator A cylinder 4 range / performance. Did you ever get it resolved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bingodalton Posted March 9, 2023 Report Share Posted March 9, 2023 A is left one, B is right one.Cylinders from left to right looking at the engine bay.You can remove it easily, spray it with brake cleaner a little bit. Let it dry and put back.Sent from my SM-S901B using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignition1 Posted March 9, 2023 Report Share Posted March 9, 2023 This was my error: Cam Shaft Actuator "A" Cylinder 2 Range/Performance (15396 P11A600) - though VW fixed it under warranty. Actually @slider09 fixed this exactly issue for £30 and 5 minutes work on his driveway . VW said if didn't have warranty it would cost me £3,000. Next time I'm going to slider's driveway for future work. fastandy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even for warranty work, vw dealers charge back vw uk (on new cars anyway). On assured, im not sure if there is an underwriter. Anyway, they're usually very strict on allocated time / budget. Even if they replaced all A and B actuators, at vw labour rates surely couldn't be more than £4 or £500! Anyway, glad you're sorted and @slider09 driveway business has taken off! Does he / she / they* do fancy coffee though? *delete as appropriate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
