That's good that you can do your own repairs. If you want to tackle this on your own, I would get your hands on ISTA software to properly diagnose the vehicle and see for yourself what is going on. They sell replacement kits all over online, for the Vanos gears and solenoids. See the codes for yourself, and ISTA will give you more insight into what each code is, and what are possible culprits. Good luck
