There are quite a number of reasons why a timeout may be returned from App Engine. It may be a result of some network issues while trying to reach google apis. To determine specifically the root cause of the issue experienced on your application, I recommend that you open an issue using the issue tracker link[1][2]. This way a GCP Support engineer would be able to work closely with you, reviewing your application configuration and determine exactly what may be the cause of the timeout.
