    Harmonic Balancer Question

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hello,
    I've recently had the dreaded tensioner fail on my 09 B8 and had timing thrown off which lead to cylinder and valve collision I had a repair done with my extended warranty but recently my check engine light came on with code P2279 intake air system leak and P2187 fuel system. I've noticed my harmonic balancer seems to have kind of a wiggle.

    Does this look normal or could there be some misalignment issues with one of the sprockets when the timing chain tensioner repair was done ?

    Is it possible you have a leak in the intake somewhere after the work you had done? If you're also getting P2187, lean, then I would think the leak is somewhere after the MAF. Those two codes together would lead me to think there is unmetered air entering which is giving you the lean code.
