Hi, i have a bmw 2012 116i f21 with a drivetrain fault.
Whenever i start the car on cold start, nothing appears as an error. As soon as I put it into gear and begin to accelerate i get an engine warning light and drivetrain malfunction with a lot of shaking in the engine and the gear stick vibrating
As this occured i ran the obd and P13C0 error appeared.
I turned the car off(but kept ignition on) and the drive train malfunction error disappeared and no code was on the obd scanner. i turn the engine back on but now the drive train malfunction comes on after 10 seconds without having acceleration. i turn it off and again check obd but no code appears.
I had recently changed the vanos solenoid with a brand new one. Maybe the plug that goes into the vanos solenoid is bad but im sure i would get a circuit error if that was the case.
I have no idea what to do... maybe realign the camshaft? and if so is there a manual for.this proceedure?
