somewhere i read that before changing anything I should check the cam shaft deviation
today I connected a durametric v1.0 to the car and the live values from the car actually only contained Deviation for cam shaft 1 ( no 2 was simply not available???)
at Idle it showed steady -6.
is it correct that I only can see no1 and is -6 ok?
how much is it supposed to move and at what RPM?

Early ROW cars only reported one cam value as they used a different senor array.
In any case, your one cam is already at the limit value (assuming you drove the car around for at least 20 min. before checking as you will get errant values if you do not). If the value is real, you probably need to update the small tensioner paddles between the cams on your five chain motor.
I would also seriously plan on updating both your Durametric cable and software as the version you are on is woefully out of date (current version is 6.5.1.7).
