Vanos exhaust code 15 and B9 after vanos overhaul... Feedback welcome!

Hey guys.

I bought another E46 M3 a couple months back and I've been working on it on and off. I had vanos related codes when I purchased it but the car seemed to idle and pull fine. I decided to buy a new OEM sealing plate for the vanos solenoid unit, as well as a new genuine vanos valve. I also cleaned the solenoids with a magnet as iI,ve seen done by other users... Still get exhaustr related codes 15 and B9 showing up on Autel (pic below).

Any idea what it might be related with? Maybe my solenoid pack is faulty, hard to tell... But any insight is welcomed at this time!

Thanks
