How to replace the Camshaft Position Sensor on a 2001 BMW E39 525i/530i

[@ssingh2525]

Nice video. For anyone undertaking this replacement, it's worth taping/attaching a piece of wire to the connector end of the sensor before it pulling it out on the vanos end. It's easier to attach the replacement part to your piece of wire and back into position than trying to fish it through.

I do not know where to ask, so I ask here ! sory if it is a litle bit off topic! if I change the TPS on a e39 523i from 96, do I need to reprogram my car ? if so, how ?
