[Marlon]

Hello, hope you guys might be able to advise on the following -

Cars been running pretty rough recently sounding like a diesel, engine management light keeps coming on and staying on, so i've had it in for the following work done -

Timing belt service which was about due, parts replaced -

timing belt
tension roller
relay roller
tensioning damper
water pump

Also had the following replaced -

2 timing chains
2 camshaft adjuster units
2 rocker cover gaskets

Plus major service plugs, oil, filters etc

However the engine management light is still on and the following faults have been found on vagcom -

16730 - Camshaft position censor (G163): Implausible signal
p0346 - 35-00 - -
16684 - Random/multiple cylinder misfire detected
p0300 - 35-00 - -
16688 - Cylinder 4: Misfire detected

16690 - Cylinder 6: Misfire detected
p0306 - 35-00 - -

I trust you inspected the cam lobes for wear when the rocker covers were off??
