...in vag-com. I am trying to figure out why my 3.2 has the code: P0014 008 Retard Setpoint not Reached (Over-Advanced) - Intermittent.
I want to see which cam is troublesome, but vag-com has the two intake camshafts, but only one exhaust. Does anyone have some insight into why that is and how I can log the other exhaust cam?

You could try and swap the oil solenoids around, see if anything changes

I tried, it made no difference. They also opened when powered by 12v.

I forgot to add the vag-com screenshot

I kept track of when the error is triggered. It always triggers on cold starts. After a few minutes of driving it does not come back. I drove it nicely, aggressively, and towed 2500lbs in the mountains, no codes.

There is absolutely no cam or chain rattle.

​​​​​​I am guessing it's an oil supply issue. Maybe the anti drain back valve is stuck open and it takes a bit to get the VVT going?

Please post the entire VCDS autoscan.
