Does anyone have the cam sensor part number? Bank 2 if it matters.

Does anyone know how hard it is to change? I think I may be able to manage from the wheelchair if it slides in and out.

TIA,

Not sure the part number... but you need to pull the valve cover off to replace it. It's kind of a PIA.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Is there a video somewhere? Looks like it should just unbolt slide out and slide in?

What am I missing?

TIA

It does not seem like the valve cover needs removed for this?

Cool thanks.

Bank 1 near the firewall?

Bank 2 closer to the radiator?
