the are 4 sensors two in each side one I think is on the intake side top of vale cove? the other is on the lower side next to the exhaust.but those sensor are call crank sensor part number 7558518-02 are this sensor acting as cam sensor?

[JimLev]

I didn't bother looking up the crank sensor, your 4 cam sensors are all the same p/n.
Your p/n doesn't seem correct. Yes, the intake cam sensor is on the top side of the valve cover.

I've posted this a million times. P-codes are useless. Get real BMW specific codes. And post the code WITH THE FAULT CODE DESCRIPTION. A number doesn't mean anything without a description.
