P2015 P0010
Removed the Intake manifold and replaced the flapper lever with aftermarket. Also was getting P0025 which I replaced exhaust magnet on drivers side. P0025 code is gone, however P2015 and P0010 are present? Any ideas as I am lost? BTW when the engine is off, how should the levers sit as the right lever is to the left. Thanks as emissions is due on. Tuesday.

You used a generic OBDII scanner which does not give you the full picture here. You really need to invest in a scan tool that reads native MBZ codes.
P2015 does not directly translate to an MBZ-specific DTC, but it is related to a problem with the intake manifold runners. If you clear it and it returns, then you may have a problem with the runners not actuating. I assume the part you replaced was the swirl flap actuator lever on the front center? That is different from the runners - those are the other two vacuum actuators.
P0010 is either DTC 0279 or 0740. 0279 is a problem with the wiring to the right side intake solenoid, so check the connection there. 0740 is a bad right side intake camshaft adjuster (get your wallet out!).

Thanks Rude. When I took the intake out I checked the flaps inside(well visually a d moved them and they functioned good.
As far as the p0010, I thought that could also be camshaft magnet as well?Also isn't p0010 on the left side(passenger)

P0010 is the right engine bank. The "right" side of the car is based on siting in the driver's seat, so it's the passenger's side (assuming a left-hand drive USA car).

Ok just making sure. I ordered 2 magnets not realizing the p0010 was present. Took car to Autozone before I had my own scanner and the guy only said one code 0025.
As far as the p2015 I also read a post where a guy had to replace vacuum lines connected to the intake leading to the vacuum actuators as well. Didn't look at car today as I have been chasing down codes on CLK and Boxster for last 2-3 weeks. Will go at it tomorrow. Thanks again

Ok so I changed the intake side magnet on passenger side(US), and 0010 error is still present. Also checked the plug and wire for breaks and nothing. There was also no oil in connection as well. Any ideas?

Does anyone know what the two valves are named a d also how to test? I know the blue is a one way I believe but not sure which direction. The bigger with electrical I am not sure of.

Can someone check to see if this valve should have a vacuum line at this point as it looks like mine is broken off inside. Thought this was just called off, bit then I started digging and clearing dirt and found this.

No, the adjuster is bolted onto the end of the camshaft. It is what actually changes the angle of the camshaft timing. The solenoid (magnet) is just the part that actuates it. If the adjuster is bad, it's a heads-off job to replace them. One other thing you could try, but I doubt would do any good, is to swap the camshaft position sensor with another cam to see if the error moves.

Correct. But when looking at all the possible errors related to camshaft timing, there are codes for bad sensors, so i really doubt it's that, but it's a five minute test.

So, after changing the intake magnet on passenger side and cleaning out what looked to be a clogger screen mesh on the connector in the pic, the P0010 and SAI code I had is now gone. P2015 remains in confirmed but no CEL as of yet.
