crank sensor was probably on its way out anyway. i would recommend changing one anyway as part of a proventative maintinance prosedure.

As long as the cable is visible OK, and code 19 isn't stored in the ECU, there is no need to chance the CPS as a precautionary measure...

That depends how old the sensor is James... ;)

To give you an example, we replaced it on the project lpg as there was no record of it in the history.
I had a new one spare, so it made sense.

Generally it is advisable to have one spare. The sensor itself is fine, it is the routing that is flawed.

Thanks for your comments guys. Maybe the sensor was on its way out anyway. I was just p*ssed that it went at the garage having only had an oil change. Nice to see other people in Derby too!!
Cheers, J

Getting the old sensor back now won't be any use. They will just give you the first one they find in the bin!

£140?????? What, did the Sultan of Brooon eye fit it? Jeez. Laidback fits these in about 3 minutes flat and they cost about £40 new, so why the bend-over and take it routine?

Letter to VX:

Dear scum

Thanks for ripping my tonsils out from the other end. All I wanted was a crank sensor but it seems that only comes with an indsutrial tube of KY jelly. Did you only have the solid 24 carrat gold ones in stock? Where is my old one, there is a jewellers near me who said he will give me £100 for it.

I am thinking of getting a new tyre valve soon. I have spoken with the bank and they will re-mortgage the house if I promise to eat my own head.

I am so glad I brought my car to you. I didn't want a life anyway so enjoy my money you thieving, robbing, low down, blood sucking scudbuckets from hell.

lots of love
An Omega victim


Letter to garage that did the oil change:

Dear spanner monkey

Ugggggggggg. Ugggg, ugggg ugggg. Uggg ugg uggg uggg oil change uggg ugggg ugg.

Thanks.
