I’ve got a 2005 Audi A3 3.2 engine code BMJ in for repair
No start vehicle
Good fuel pressure -
Crank sensor - ok
Cam sensors - ok
Injector are pulsing
Coils are firing
I’m looking for a cam vs crank waveform to check the valve timing. I’ll upload what I have shortly.
If anyone has a know good I’d really appreciate
Thanks

So you have spark and fuel?
Have you tried any starter fluid or gas?
Tried the engine to start at least for a second or fraction or second?
Try to capture when cranking, battery voltage drops (mechanical TDC) and ignition time.

And not like this known good off a 4 cylinder Honda engine

I’m confused at the 6 sets of 3 staggered peaks from the maf signal

Red trace maf signal
Blue trace no 1 injector control
