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

Thank you will come in use as a reference for any problems I may have? I hold Thomas Exovcds in high regard as well! I'm always learning from that guy like yourself, again thanks. :)

Great vid massive help, saved me hours of head scratching!

difficult job especially with very cold fingers :) thank you for sharing this information video.Looks very similar on my Golf mk6 1.6 tdi 2009

About to fit one on a golf van I have for sale. Thank u so much for this video. Very helpful.. 💪🏻😉

good work my friend, i have this engine in my caddy 1.9 TDI BLS you have helped me sort my problems out , big thanks

Super vidéo, merci, grâce à toi j ai pu changer mon capteur à moindre coût, mon garagiste me disais qu'il fallait faire la distribution pour changer le capteur It s a very good video thank you

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.

Great job Mate!

Thank you for this video 😉

Thank you so much for the information.

vilken felkod hade du? Jag har P0321 på en Golf TDI 1.9 bytte vevaxelsensor men felet kvarstår.

Thanks for the good job .you always do good vidéos

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.

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 RU-vidr 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.

Excelent. Bravo !

Danke,ihr Video war sehr hilfreich👍

Very good thank you so much

I appreciate so much your excellent video, very very useful !!! Thank you

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.

Thank you .... good ..

hello thanks for this good video top 👌🙏🙏

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.

Very useful thank you 😊

Thank you so much!! It worked

Hoe eronder voor de sensor vw transporter 2.0 tdi 140 pk zit vast met die plastieken plaat aan de riem krijg sensor er maar niet uit wie ' help mij met juiste raad tip

Thanks for very much for this video

Great video

Thanks for sharing 👍

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?

Tank you 👍👍👍

Thank you xx

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

Thomas VCDS its wery good mekanic in Canada

Goood job

I found a OEM VW part new from 2019 should I buy that or after market new one from 2023?

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

Bine lucrat boos 😊

Brilliant

Thanks mate i changed mines using this video but i still have same problem what you think it could be

Muito bom,obrigado

Thanks

skoda fabia combi 2009 1.9 TDI 105ch it's ok??

Thank you du 974

Good video but your as crazy as I am fixing cars in the rain and cold, but somebody's got to do it

I have a gt tdi and when it is cold it starts first time but when it is warm it takes a longer crank to start will it be the cam shaft sensor please help me

👍👍

Nice

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

👍

Thanks for great video, Put a rag under the screw before trying to fit it. If screw falls it lands on the rag, easy to pick up

Zdravim ,bol som na diagnostike , vypísalo chybu: camshaft position senzor -upper limit exxeced ,golf 1.4 fsi 66kw ,kablovacka ok,senzor výmeneny kontrolka motora stále svieti , chcem sa spýtať treba ísť na diag a zmazať chybu,alebo treba nejak nový senzor nastaviť ? Dik za odpoved

did you have an error code for this problem? Thanks!

You need a head camera 👍🏿👍🏼👍

what symptoms did you have on the car when you changed camshaft sensor?

I had the shop change this sensor on my Touran 1.9 TDI, but it's still doesn't want to start sometimes and turns off while i'm driving!

My camshaft locked after I changed mine. Any reason why

I'm having same issue, but wouldn't a faulty cam sensor show up as a fault on diagnostic machine? I get no faults

Ahoj môže poškodený snímač vačkoveho hriadeľa spôsobiť vyššiu spotrebu a sem tam ťažký štart? Niekedy musím dlho točiť kým naštartuje, diagnostika nepíše žiadnu chybu auto nedymy otáčky nekolisu

what error code did you have? I have P0321 on a Golf TDI 1.9 change crankshaft sensor but the fault persists.

I changed it but I'm still getting problems with new sensor what could it be?

Che marca hai usato?

Same car , same problem , i changed this sensor but the engine do not start , fault P0322

I tried to follow the steps, however the problem is the hole to take out the camshaft sensor is small, that the other end of sensor cannot go through. Anybody facing the same issue? And how do you solve it?

Realistically how long does it take to change cam sensor on golf?

I have same problem, and i change the camshaft sensor, but the lamp still on and i need time to start engine, what the problem bro ?

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

Golf 2.0

Audi A1 1.6 TDI. Thanks absolute nightmare to replace. I wonder why they put the sensor in such a difficult area?

Sensor is a pig to get out. Mine isn't moving

Role of that plastic part...

Very good. Pls use gloves. Takar

Extremely fiddly, use rag to catch bolt because you WILL drop it!!!

15 minutes to change, mechanics say it takes 3 hours, mechanics are one of the worst breeds in the world.

hmm this guy hardly knows what's he doing, lets repeat after him ;)) good luck
