« on: 18 January 2022, 12:26:09 »
What a day yesterday was started with 8 hour stint in the local A&E and on the way home I noticed a slight stutter or a clunk it was quick then a mile further on it all stopped.Engine turns over more no firing so called Emergency Assist and after the call I tried the engine and it fired up so drove for another 6 miles and it stopped again seemed like on deceleration so they brought me home.Car started this morning enough to move it so at least it's off the road.I'm guessing Crankshaft sensor but I'll pop out again shortly and check any codes,do we have any recommendations for new ones? Or any other useful info and what perfect timing lol

New crank sensor. Only buy genuine from a genuine GM dealer.

Incidentally the part number in the guide has been superceded.

When my local Vx dealer that I have used for years said the GM ones were no longer available, I bought a Bosch one via Autodoc.  It has worked fine since, but no doubt other online suppliers have these as well. As DG will say, shop around and you will find them ;)

The part number has changed. NLS means just that and applies to the last VX part number.

It’s akin to saying that the Astra A is NLS. You can still buy the new Astra J/K/L

The current GM crank sensor part number is now

90494182

Expect any other number to be NLS.

The Bosch part no. for the correct sensor for the 2.6 and 3.2 is -

BOSCH ® 0 261 210 131

RPM Sensor, engine management

The other part no. you will see for it is GM 90540743 that can be used for cross reference.

The genuine GM crank sensors are made by Bosch - I have only ever bought GM or Bosch for replacements.
I would like to think NGK are good replacements going off the quality of their spark plugs etc., but I have never tried them as Bosch or GM have always been available whenever I have needed one.

Personally I would buy the one I gave the number for as that is the latest version and is 100% the part that replaced the number Johnny gave.

Cheap too... https://www.gmpartsdirect.com/oem-parts/gm-crankshaft-position-sensor-90494182

Indeed, and even if shipping is $25 on top, it is still almost half what VX charge :o

I would add, that you should shop around. Summit Racing, for example, can deliver the same part for around $70/£52.
