Help required here too on this subject although mine is a v6. Light has just come on but have no aparrent mis-firing or juddering. never done this before in 18 months of ownership. Anyone in my area with a fault code reader i could use would be brill ( by pure bad luck the wife's Corsa has the same light on)
Cheers......

What year is yours? Can you paperclip it?

I have the same problem on my 2.2 lit petrol, although it doesn't occur very frequently (yet) and only for a short period of time. This mostly happpens in hot weather.

Cam sensor the best guess here? Is it placed the same as on 2.0 lit?

Thanks!

Could be anything bringing up the code tbh.  You would be better getting the codes read by a garage or buy yourself a cheap tech 2 code reader to get the codes yourself.  

You may be able to do the pedal trick although I've not yet seen it work on a 2.2.  Press the accelerator and the brake pedal to the floor with the ignition off.  Keep the pedals pressed down then turn the ignition onto position 2.  If the engine management light starts to flash write down the sequence.

There is absolutely no guarantee your camsensor is at fault without the relevant code to confirm it.  You may end up throwing your money in the fire.

hi again guys,

Silly question...but I would just like quick confirmation on my engine type so I can order a new cam sensor.

Car is as on left.........2000 (W plate) 2.0L GLS Auto.   Am I correct in saying the engine is X20XEV ?

Thanks

asautocare in wigan(?) if i remember correctly. The 2.2 has no
Way of flashing codes as far as we know. So you need a
tech 2 diagnostic. Dont quote me on the name but i saw it
On here somewhere tech 2 diagnostic for 30 quid. Worth a
search. Hope helps.

Tell me about it, engine lights and omegas seem to have a real love for each other, never apart for too long!  I think you may have just nominated yourself to do the pedal trick guide!
