p0015

I have a 2007 S550 that is giveing a code p0015.
Car has been converted to run on LPG(propane) and runs just fine.
All maintence up to date.
I do all maintence my self since it is a grey import car(US car imported my self in The Netherlands) and runs on propane so dealer will not touch it.
Should I just change the magnets as discribed in the post about p0015 or
is my V8 different than the V6 in the post?
Any help welcome.

I think it have something to do with the camshaft postition sensor as you allready know. MB should be able to help you even if you use propane?

MB here will not touch this car with a 10feet pole.
Last time they did it was(as is the standard here) connected to the central computer in Germany. Complete software was changed back to what was suposed to be in the car from the factory, but that is USA software which is different from European software. I had loaded european software, changed the comand system to european and from miles to kms, fahrenheit to celsius ect. Result: Nothing worked any more and they could NOT reverse the proces. I had to reprogram the whole car myself.
That was before the propane conversion and the changes to the ECU to gain more horsepower and have the limiter removed, car will do 308km topspeed on the GPS (185mph) on propane!

I would like to know if my engine has the same magnets as discribed in the thread about this problem. If so I will just change them and the problem should be solved.
Does anybody knows this?
