Title: What sensor is this?
Post by: Adezmk3 on 11 November 2011, 19:48

I have read that to replace the crank position sensor you need to remove the front engine mount. The part on this ebay listing I can change without taking off the front engine mount, so is the listing right?

No that's a knock sensor not a crank sensor. Crank sensor is at the bottom right of the block as you look at it and yes, u need to remove front mount/bracket to change it mate
