How to resolve the Volkswagen P001600 fault code?
1 Answers
Computer diagnosis initially indicates the fault as P001600 - Bank 1, camshaft position/crankshaft position sensor - incorrect correlation. It may be caused by incorrect phasing. Please check the camshaft/crankshaft phasing. If tooth skipping is found, the timing needs to be corrected and realigned. Possible causes are as follows: 1. Timing: The timing chain is stretched, the tensioner's force is insufficient, or the chain has skipped teeth. 2. Oil: The oil passages are unclean, affecting lubrication and camshaft adjustment. 3. Sticking: Wear on the camshaft and bearing bridge, or sticking of the adjustment mechanism. 4. Non-standard: Not following standard repair procedures or using non-standard parts.
