How many chain links do you have between timing marks on the two camshafts?
Go to the thread titled " Vario cam issues" on post 48 on the second page you will see a picture of the cams. If you look close you will see the timing mark on each cam and you will be able to count six links between the timing marks.
Are you positive there are six links between cam timing marks?????
A link off is all I can think to be your issue as everything else seems ok.
If your tool just locks into one cam the only way you know the other cam is right is to have the proper number of chain links between them.
