P0015 Camshaft Position B - Timing Over-

Good evening everybody,
First time in this forum. Couple days back I had a warning in the central console screen DRIVETRAIL MALFUNCTION- Drive moderately, maximum drivetrain output...etc etc However I did not get any engine light.

When I scanned it I found the code P0015 Camshaft position B ...etc
I started googling/Youtubing the problem but it is confusing, a lot say it's the vanos solenoids which apparently I dont have in my 2012 320i, the mechanic asked me to call the dealer and ask for the timing valve. I did so and the dealer said its not the timing valve its the camshaft sensors and I have 2 of them.

Did somebody experience the same problem on the 2012 F30?

Thanks for your help

I have an n55 but I had the same code once. Turned out the vanos actuator needed to be replaced.
