Been speaking with the garage that did the timing chain and they are going to check there work next week. So will see what happens

So fault is still apparent. We have been monitoring the running. The crank and camshaft sensors all seem to be following each other, no correlation issues being seen even when it stalls. What we did notice when it stalls is that the timing values dont seem to be adjusting correctly. It seems like potentially the camshaft isn't adjusting correctly, the magnets and solenoids have been changed. Is there anything else to check?

I believe there is only a camshaft position sensor on the exhaust but will check. I will probably quickly change over the crankshaft sensor as well. For the timing, I will get them to check the relationship between the intake and exhaust camshafts first incase one has jumped.

The timing chain was done by a garage. They changed the cam position sensor on the exhaust side first as that the obvious thing to do but as it made no difference they then went on to check other items as found that the timing chain was close to maximum stretch. As the car is on 125k and I don't plan to sell soon it made sense to change the chain even if it wasn't causing the issue. Battery was changed about 2 months ago as the stop start stopped working, and this fixed it. I will get them to check the timing and that it hasn't jumped a tooth.

Thanks, I will check the air filter but the fuel filter is built into the pump on these engines and you have to replace the pump at the same time.

All symptoms were there before timing chain was replaced.

Hello, Recently I have been having a couple of issues with my vrs tsi which is on 125k. I am experiencing lumpy idle and stalling when the car is between cold and normal operating pressure. The fault code is P0341, I have changed the camshaft position sensor, checked and cleaned the variable valve timing magnets and solenoids. At the same time the timing chain was changed as it was getting close to maximum limit. When the car is at normal operating it runs absolutely fine, it only seems to be an issue when warming up. Is there any suggestions on the possible fault or other items to check? I have also noted today, that the stop start status screen is sometimes showing an error and that the engine must be running even tho it is. Thanks
