BIMMER ZEIT how do you tell which camshaft sensor is bad on your e39?
Huuuuh, red is when you want to weld something in a liquid form.
I love how calm and straight to the point you made this video, my type of dude👍🏼🔥.
Thank you great video. Question, will you please show us how to do the crankshaft position sensor under the vehicle without removing the starter? Also will the engine light clear on its own, once the faulty part is replaced??
This repair would've taken me an hour or more if it wasn't for your video, factoring in the time to figure out the correct allen key size and where the bolt is located, I would've probably had to remove the expansion. It took me only 15 minutes thanks to your video, it would've taken me even less if there was no blue loctite on the bolt. Thank you for sharing : )
Fadi Dan that’s great to hear, so glad it worked out for you, cheers!
Thanks for posting this! The Bentley manual doesn't show where this sensor is nor did it mention the ring or cleaning out the site before installation of the new part. This video was SUPER helpful! Got it done in 15 minutes. :)
You're welcome Morgan! Happy this worked out for you. I would recommend replacing the intake sensor at the same time if it's original to your car as well. Here's a link to doing the intake side: czcams.com/video/yVayKZKqkBw/video.html
Bentley assumes you're not an idiot but they can't always be correct
I couldn't push my sensor back in fully do you have to apply a lot of pressure? The old sensor went back in nice and easy.
Nice video like it this will help me out changing it seen so many videos where they take out the fan out since I don't have those tools this video made me relaxed
Cool video 8 years old and still so helpfull. Thanks
Thank you once again, great communicator, simple instructions, save me over $800 bucks.
Great video, straight forward without bullshit talk👍👍👍👍👍
Why is it that most E46 M3 BMW's have everything under the bonnet in as different place.Cannot
find the intake or the exhaust cam shaft sensors ???
just a tip for everyone if you are unable to remove the viscous fan on some models (no 32mm wrench) you are able to remove the front right headlight and it will give you clearance to access the bolt underneath the sensor i did it this way.
Edit: I have to note this only applies to right hand drive models, as I noticed in the video the expansion tank is blocking access to the sensor in the left hand drive models.
Interesting tip, might help someone out in a bind. Thanks Marshall
Excellent tutorial vid mate, thanks heaps! 👍🔧🔩
Thanks for this video, it is the same thing in the M52TUB20
Thank you very much my friend GOD BLESS YOU. and very professional .
Jessie, thank you!
The code for this part should be P0340. The bolt should be torqued to 7 Nm which is about 5,2 ft lb. Thank you for the video.
Hello p0369?which is the three. thank
Dude having so much trouble with the coolant expansion tank in the way I don't know how the hell you did this
Thanks for the video. I literally can’t get the connector to come off, it’s on there really hard. Any tips?
Got it, pressed the two tabs with my hand and used a screw driver to gently nudge it off from the top of the connector. Thanks!
Does the m54b22 have 2 camshaft pos sensors as well? Cant find my exgaust one..
On my m52, it’s right behind the vanos cylinder, easy to replace tho
Hi i recently changed my camshaft sensor and after changing got a code saying the sensor is too advanced, then right after started to get misfiring codes and fuel too rich followed by fuel mix too lean. Also to note the too advance code went away but the other codes remained along with misfiring fuel cut in cylinder 4,5,6 which caused the check engine light to come on for the first time since owning the car.. Also to note once reusing the old non-working camshaft sensor the check engine light went off and all the above codes went away with just the camshaft position sensor code present.
kamal haynes did you ever get the car working with a new sensor?
Great help, thank you 👍
My X3 was throwing an intermittent P340 code, Gas mileage decreased and was running not quite as smooth at idle . Will do the change in the next couple of days, do the plugs at the same time, NGK going in, Bosch out
were the bosch good and are they in there now still?
I got a problem with my 01 530i, it has low power bellow 3k and exhaust vanos faults. I replaced solenoid, did Vanos seals, PCV and still no results. Only thing that has worked is when I blip the throttle on startup that very second engine starts it all works fine and I got tons of power from low end! Could it be faulty camshaft sensor that throws no faults?? Thanks!
Hey bro, have you managed to sort this out? I'm having the same problem with my 01 E46 330Ci convertible, low power in the lower revs, pretty much wasting fuel.
Chance your mass air flow sensor bots of you 100%
Ouch, don't use RED Threadlock on there. Should use BLUE
An otherwise very helpful video. Thank you.
My friend said the same thing. He said if i use red, it may never come back out. I bought red because i can see the red on the bolt. Does Germany have different colors than America for locktite? I don't know which way to go 🤷♀️
Brother the connection from sensor wont come out how hard i squish the side 😢
Thank you for this! I was looking for a DIY on the exhaust side.
+Roberto Sunga awesome!
What code does this one put off...or can u tell me where bank b is
Where is back b mate
Did it throw a code or not?
What a rude uploader. Ignorant swine.
Thanks bro .You re the best. All guys bla bla bla... Just you show where and how... Part #will be useful
Alex thank you!
wheres the sensor link
First video leaving the electric fan in. Props, I did the same when my sensor went bad.
Thank you👍
Thanks
My screw is stripped! What else can I do? I'm stuck!
I got a code P1525. Is it for this part ?
Bilal Ahmed did you ever find out got the same code
Question.. i followed your other video for the camshaft position sensor, which btw was great also. I replaced it but I still got the P0014 after i replaced it. I got this sensor also but wanted to know would that code also be because of the exhaust sensor going bad?
Hey Ron, unfortunately it is possible to get a dud for a new part. Happens to me once in a while, repair shops see it more often because of the volume of repairs they do. I would first check your work, make sure the contacts are clean and it's plugged all the way in. If that's the case, order a new sensor and swap it out for the old one. They're very sensitive cars when it comes to these sensors.
Thanks for responding. I ended up putting in the exhaust sensor, reset the code and the light went off. Drove it and it stayed off until I start the car back up and the SES light came back on instantly. I've seen some forums whereas the vanos solenoid(s) can seize, giving off this code. Have you heard that before?
Ron Fowler how did u fix this i have this code
You make it look so easy, I can't get the bolt back in! It's a pain in the ass to line up again!
*laughs in RHD - our expansion tank is on the other side🤣
very nice !
Just did mine. Code went away 12hrs after I ordered a new sensor. Started to think that I should have taken a reading with a voltmeter. We will see if this is the end of it. No other issues, noises, etc suggesting otherwise.
The car could not have ligth, but if the car have a power loss whith a bad sensor
first sensor tip is different then new one
What's that circular silver thing in the centre of the picture?

Orjinal bmw logolu sensör alın diğerlerini okumuyor.
Add a bit of oil to the o ring would help
mark warrington truth!
It would have been helpful to mention that the hex driver is 5mm.
0:40
ar u def?
P0014? Or what code?
On that Oring you just might want to put a little lubrication on it. "Oil"
Jim Williams yah agreed
Oh yeah just reach under and squeeze the clip and casually take the connector off... of course unless it has never been removed and then you have to move the coolant reservoir to the side spill a puddle of coolant on the ground remove the sensor with the plug still on get the sensor out in the open still struggle with the plug for another 5 minutes and finally you got the plug off.
😂 it be like that sometimes
