The 5th generation BMW 3 Series is based on the E9X platform. The car pictured is a E90 chassis. The E9X chassis was used from 2004-2013 when the F1X chassis was released. When talking about a non-specific chassis, this generation is typically referred to as the E9X chassis since there are multiple chassis for this generation of 3 series, depending on the body style (E90/E91/E92/E93).

@kirbyrene according to the SM the P0013 2A85 is a 'B' Camshaft Position Actuator Circuit Open (Bank 1). these are related to a camshaft timing issue commonly cause by failed VVT solenoid on the exhaust camshaft. Bad camshaft position sensors can also cause this error.

Take a look on here as well as on here for more information.

Let us know the exact year and exact model for your BMW so we can hopefully get more from the service manual.
