Recently I had a P0315 pop up on my dash I was wondering if anyone had experience with this fault. I have no idea where to start. Anyone have any advise

P0315 Crankshaft Position System Variation Not Learned. Looks like TL;DR troubleshooting would be:

Clear code, if it doesn't come back, enjoy your day.
If it returns, perform Crankshaft Position System Variation Relearn (with scanner tool), clear codes.
If it returns, replace Crankshaft Position Sensor, clear codes.
If it returns, go to trusted mechanic.

I cleared it and came back... by the way this is a 3.0t and where would the crankshaft position sensor be located ?

Assuming your alias indicates you have a 2019 Q, why not take it to a dealership and have it addressed under warranty?

The crankshaft position sensor is located on passenger side/which is also called bank 1. If you look behind valve covers near fire wall ypull see camshaft sensors. If you look way down yonder lol under the exhaust manifold the crankshaft sensor is way down there. Hard to get to but is possiable i did it myself but tight squeeze.

The person who posted that was a one-post wonder a couple years ago. You probably won't get a response.

Thanks for posting some good info. When you replaced your sensors, did you go from the top of the engine or from underneath?

#22 and #27 are the intake camshaft position sensors.
#23 and #26 are the exhaust camshaft position sensors.
#25 is the crankshaft position sensor.
