Help!!! E83 won't start after forgetting self-learning step of valvetronic motor

HI all,

I was pointed here.

First time poster, long time reader.

I need help, Appreciate any inputs.

One day ago, I cleaned the space around the valvetronic gasket due to minor oil leaking by taking valvetronic out and putting it back. Unfortunately forgot to keep the key at position 2 for 30 seconds, the car didn't want to start at first a few tries.

Cause everything was fine with the car, except minor oil leaking, then I adjusted the valvetronic motor by 4mm Allen key, thought it is related.
Actually I got the car running after a few adjustments, which made the valve at close to right position, I guess.

But code 2A38 was thrown, I thought I had messed up the timing between valvetronic and crankshaft.

Then I tried to relearn process the limit position, no luck. Still don't want to start.

Anyone can point me to right direction of fixing this. I am at a dead end.

HELP!!!
