P0321, p0322 Simple Fix Volkswagen GTI, Jetta Golf

[@ChuckWesterlund]

I watch a lot of KZbin videos before I start a project. This by far is one of the best I have seen. Thanks

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Chuck Westerlund I am humbled by your kindness.

[@DanielCrumpler-to3on]

Thank you for this video. This is literally the only video of this repair that I've been able to find for my car. Cheers

[@racerboy063]

Great camera angles on such a tiny spot. Bravo to you sir.

[@Todddle]

Awesome video! Thanks for sharing and making my life so much easier on knowing what I'm getting into.

[@RedondoBeach2]

You bought me something new about my car. Thank you! Much appreciated. Keep up the great work.

only video I could find about this sensor for the 1.8T, thank you!

Fantastic job with the camera work. Thanks for sharing your knowledge

Great video on this,that sensor can be a nightmare if the bolts to badly rusted

1.8t awd Audi won’t be as simple huh

[@ez-g3090]

I have 2015 tdi Passat with same code. Should it be the crankshaft position sensor?

[@gaborherman1481]

FYI this also applies to 2.0 ltr. The 10 mm bolt will also accept a 5 mm allen, but the space is likely to be full of dirt. 10 mm socket is the way to got.

[@nolahahnshouse3389]

Was just about to say this

[@joelprovine7543]

2.0 tdi?

[@gaborherman1481]

@@joelprovine7543 No, this is on Mk4, with 2.0 gas engine. I spent way too much time cleaning out the indentation on the bolt head for the 5 mm Allen. When I was done, I realized that a 10 mm socket would’ve been much more efficient and better use of my time. The instructions only mention the 5 mm Allen wrench and not the 10 mm bolt head. Good luck.

[@vicecoldyt9763]

I also have the mk4 Jetta 2.0 thanks for your comment

[@customcruiserroy]

Great video! I just did this on my Beetle 1.8T. Pain in the ass since you can't really get a good bead on it. The original lead is way too short and the bracket was a pain. I took out the funny thing that looks like a horn but goes to airbox. Took me 2.5 hours to change it out. I wish I saw this video. Anyway, just wanted to say great job!!

[@YourCarGuyDR]

customcruiserroy thank you I appreciate it.

Thnx m8 you saved my lif..... Uh car

[@jptech2645]

Hi thanks for your great video. My 2009 Rabbit had the EPC and check engine light on, so I changed to a new throttle body. But both lights were still on after 20 mins drive. So I found your video and bought an OBD2 scanner, found out the P0322 code. I changed to a brand new crankshaft position sensor, run the OBD 2 scanner again, the code P0322 is still on. I tested drive the car and seems ok. Can I still continue to drive without reset the code? Or it must to be reset if not the car will died again? Thanks in advance

[@regmiles]

Thanks. I have this same vehicle offering the same p0322 code and I'm going out to play with it now. It's nice to know in advance what to expect and how to handle it.

[@ETLAEDITZ]

Great vid, exceptional even. Now get rid of that silly BOV and stop wasting gas.

[@alanwong928]

I have the same issue with 2001 1.4 VW Polo. Ordered the new sensor and will be fitting it when it arrives. Exact same codes as yours.

[@alanwong928]

I used the VCDS HEXNET with my iPad to diagnose the fault. Its a good bit of kit to use.

Thank you for this video, another question. I’m getting the codes u showed but also secondary air injection pump code. But I’ve cleaned wiring n put a new OE one and that code still comes up. Check valve? Help

Which specific code are you getting for the air pump?

When I went to order one from orileys they asked if it was oval or rectangular after saying I have an 01 passat 1.8t. I asked if there was an engine code specific and they said "no its one of those wonky things"🤣😭😭 but thanks another for this video kind sir.

[@rileylerner3486]

Hey, thanks for the video. Unfortunately I cannot get my sensor out, I’ve taken out the 10mm mounting bolt but the sensor is extremely stuck, it spins freely but will not pull out from the mount despite many hours of prying and pulling. Any tips? I’ve been debating hitting it with some pb blaster but have not tried this yet. Thanks in advance

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Riley Lerner the pb blaster can be helpful. It’s a tight spot to work in but if you have some sort of small prybar you can work under it.

[@light2011]

I have a 1.8t 2003 Jetta. So the crankshaft sensor would also be located at same spot ?

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Light , yes

[@light2011]

Your Car Guy DR thank you I found the crankshaft sensor. also was wondering where is the camshaft sensor located as well

[@joeyflorio7517]

Thank you for this

[@jacobbaker7829]

How does the car react when it needs a new Crankshaft position sensor because i have a 05 jetta gli 1.8t automatic and it jerks hard when it goes from 1st all they way to 4th its fine on the hwy going like 70mph but when im in town it starts jerking please help for the love of god!!!!

[@YourCarGuyDR]

jacob baker that sounds more like a misfire to me. Are you getting a check engine light at all?

[@rawalters48]

Would be cool if I knew where your camera was so k could figure out where this sensor is.

[@dansmith2097]

Great video mate, but unfortunately for me i changed this sensor, i also changed the cam shaft position sensor. But i am still getting the code come up for p0321 and p0322 😢😢

Hello great video ,but i have a question i diagnosed my car the other day with a vcds and it showed me a error saying Knock Sensor . Thanks in advance

[@YourCarGuyDR]

If you have a knock sensor code I would inspect and or change the knock sensor first.

[@todormitkow8622]

@@YourCarGuyDR I changed it ,however the fault poped back up again with another one saying Internal Control Module ROM Error could that be causing the knock sensor to pop back up again even if changed ,thanks.

[@YourCarGuyDR]

@@todormitkow8622 yes. If the control module is having a ROM issue there is a chance that you need a new computer.

[@todormitkow8622]

@@YourCarGuyDR Thanks for the feedback.

[@alejolar90]

Great video. What were the symptoms before you changed the sensor?? I was going down the highway doing 75+mph on 5th gear and the RPMs just dropped down to 0. Kinda scary when you are in traffic. Put it in 4th gear and I was able to rev it up and bring it back to speed. It wouldn't get past 4,000rpms after it though. Took it to autozone and got the same code. Did you have that problem also and did it get fixed after replacing the sensor?

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Alex Lara yes had the same issues and no problems since repair.

[@alejolar90]

@@YourCarGuyDR thanks for the response. One more question where did you get the replacement sensor from and would you recommend a Bosch replacement. Thanks in advance

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Alex Lara I always prefer Bosch when it is the OE supplier. I sourced it online via Amazon.

[@jeroendegroot8326]

Did you had to do this under the car or from above?!

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Jeroen De Groot from underneath

[@texasoutlaw0221]

Would you happen to know if the location is the same for a 2005 VW Jetta GLI 1.8T?

[@YourCarGuyDR]

It should be the same on all of that era 1.8t motors

[@bruner900]

Replaced mine now misfire and backfires at anything above 4,000 rpm could that be a result of not clearing the codes after replacing?

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Most likely you have something else going on. Possible bad coils or timing chain issues.

[@MaksymKovalenko]

I have a 2001 Golf 2.0 gasoline engine. Process is exactly the same. Just FYI.

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Good to know. Thank you.

[@Evan-nk6ht]

Do you need to disconnect the battery when you do this?

Evan Sensenbrenner I would recommend it.

I have a problem my car won’t start but the lights and everything else works we changed the starter new battery the car did start once or Twice but will not start again

Alan Ramos I am assuming that the starter is not turning? If so you could have an issue with you ignition switch or the security system immobilized.

Your Car Guy DR we got it 😀 it was Electrical power from the battery to the starter

Your Car Guy DR I have a 2.0 how do you unclip that clip

[@ryanhanlin6576]

Also how do I know if it’s a squeeze clip or do I use a flathead

[@YourCarGuyDR]

Ryan Hanlin there is a squeeze tab on the connector. The squeeze tab lifts a lever to unlock the connector. As there isn’t much room you can reach under the lever with a flat screwdriver from the side shown in the video.
