I've been driving this Volkswagen Passat for five or six years, and recently the engine light came on with abnormal noises at idle. After inspection, it turned out the timing chain had stretched. The mechanic used a diagnostic computer to access a specific channel, I think it was channel 93, to measure the camshaft position deviation. The reading showed an excess of over 5 degrees, confirming the need for a chain replacement. After the repair, it's running smoothly now, but I calculated the cost was quite high and regretted not checking the oil earlier. Actually, timing chain stretch is a common issue with Volkswagens. During diagnosis, this channel 93 is quite crucial as it can assess the chain's tension state and prevent engine damage. For daily maintenance, remember to use full synthetic oil to slow down chain wear.
