Thanks for this video, It was super helpful for my Caddy 3. Just the air inlet hose seems to be different. It only needs to remove the two clips in the front and at the back, no need to remove the hose clamps. I tried and regreted it quite a bit, Without a special tool they are really hard to handle.

[@onecutjoinery5004]

Hey, thanks so much for showing how you did this! Just had a problem with my caddy van and tried it myself and now it runs great again

Good effort dude. Done mine after watching u. Awsome

[@Wrensspeedshop]

I’ve seen different answers to this question but will ask again. One this motor will this sensor cause the engine to only rev to 2000 rpm and not throw a code unless you hold the rpm’s at 2k for a few seconds? If you turn car off then back on it idles perfect and revs fast, but only to 2k rpm. Thank you and great how to videos.

Ty vole , to stený se mi posralo v seatu Ibize 2.0 tdi. Vùbec nevím jak ho vyndám bez toho aniž bych rozebral půlku auta. Super video, nevím proč ale měl jsem problém najít na internetu kde je senzor umístěný.

[@tweegesigkenner3216]

had a strange problem now . car would start and cut off immediately . disconnected the cam sensor completely and the car started and revved as per normal . when reconnecting it , the problem was back . replaced with new cam sensor and all fine . not sure if you can explain . thanks for video .really helped

Your cam sensor was failing that's why.

Your a great mechanic 👌 i am also very creative when i dont have a tool and i know a screwdriver wil fit also as is torx why whaste your time👍😎👌 And as a KZbinr and first mechanic myself: i know how hard it is to film whith one hand and fix the car whith the other hand, and stay focust, 👀 verry well done thanx. litl tip for les skilled mechanics: use some superglue to glue the bolt to the wrench socked then you will not get screwed by dropping the bold in the timingbelt compartment 😉 this also works great on Philips Torx etc.

[@invig2]

I'm getting similar hard start but heaps of other faults too. Just suddenly came on. Like no oil pressure. Would bad cam sensor cause the ECU to go crazy? OBM II says that bad RPM sensor is the major fault.

Check the wiring to the sensor from the ECU

[@mirackoroglu1572]

What was the problem? Why you change the camshaft sensor.?

[@gamesandroid-ios7742]

the camshaf sensor can lose the acceleration power and is it possible to completely detach the acceleration i have an audi a4 b6 1.9tdi avf and please explain what symptoms the cam shaft sensor has

[@Smith6265]

Easier to change the timing belt and waterpump at the same time 😀 + alternator belt 😉

[@sburner9068]

Maybe during timer belt change also change the sensor just ouf of prevention.

[@have-a-gorepairhero2760]

​@@sburner9068exact same thought I had!

[@MrAndi13100]

Hi mate, my car sounds exactly like this. But it' won't start occassionally, not all the time, and I can get it started with easy start spray. Would you suggest that the problem is the same, the camshaft position sensor?

Not all mechanics, I run a small garage especially for single mothers and low income people, I only charge for what I do. Customers can stay and watch and also learn!! I’m not joking I am booked solid for months…….I even get cheaper business rates from council because they like what I do!!! I would charge 1/2 hour for that job….and it’s done with care!
