Crankshaft sensor location ? 2016 2.0tdi 3V5

Featured Replies

Been having intermittent stuttering but no code.

 

Finally got a code today of P0322, crankshaft sensor

 

Looking on Google and Youtube I'm not able to find the sensor location info specific to my model, can someone advise me where the crankshaft sensor is please

I think I've found it, behind the flywheel housing, around the corner from the oil filter.

 

A tight squeeze for my massive hands, might see if there's a garage in West Lothian who can do it for me.

I decided to bite the bullet and have a go myself.

Once I spent a while setting up an angled inspection mirror, 2 torches, and an 8" extension with a 4mm hex bit, it was plain sailing for nearly an hour !

 

The problem is the aftermarket sensor i fitted causes more stuttering than the original, and a code P0321. I've refitted the original one for now

 

Moral of the story is buy the genuine item first time !
