I have this error code popping up. Any experience this same thing and if so, how was it fixed? I have 2001 Porsche Turbo.

Change the cam sensor. Located on the heads. Small little black thing.

Before replacing anything there is a check you can do if you got access to a PST2 or a Durametric. The test consist of triggering the cam timing solenoid and see if it is working. When you trigger the solenoid you got rpm change and engine rumbling.... And if your good with an ohm meter here's somme test you can do....
