My 2005 PT Cruiser started right away and ran better than before the fault

took 8 minutes to plug in plus 4 minutes to disconnect battery, clear system load, reconnect battery. My 2005 PT Cruiser started right up and ran better than before the problem. Now he has a better pickup, so it must have been like that for a while.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • boring packaging

Works perfectly! Problem solved!

Works great, very easy to install in my wife's car, saved her from having problems with periodic wheezing. It was only installed a few days so I'm not sure if it will last as long as the original (130,000 miles) but if it lasts half as long as the Chrysler original that would be good.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Very expensive

Great Product: Camshaft Position

The engine ran VERY hard for months before my CEL finally gave out this code. I had terrible gas mileage the whole time. If you find this and the code is not there, do not wait, replace the camshaft position sensor. on the driver's side - the replacement takes a few minutes. Simply unscrew/two screws/swap. I guess it comes with a new gasket so that was nice. Do not wait!

Pros
  • Very Impressive
Cons
  • Only available in Black

So far so good: Parts

I have had a long history of problems with the camshaft position sensor, which would sometimes beep on my 2005 Dodge Caravan 4 cylinder engine. Another non-original sensor lasted a while, then I put the original sensor in (after replacing the spark plugs that can interfere with the signal of this sensor!). I also swapped out the magnet that is mounted on the camshaft again just to give a stronger signal. While we haven't had much warm weather, which makes matters worse, I haven't had any fallsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Write later

It seems to have solved the problem

Just installed yesterday but so far so good. The Check Engine light is now off and the engine runs better. It's literally a 10 minute install job on a PT Cruiser, so feel free to do it yourself. On the PT, remove the clamps at the top of the airbox, remove the hose to give some more clearance, and loosen the two screws that hold the sensor in place. Insert the new part, put the hose and cap back on the airbox, done. Now take the $100+ you saved by not going to the dealer and take your wife andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Some cons

I seem to have resolved my PT Cruiser's camshaft position sensor error code

PT had serious problems at times, almost got stuck limping home. I hooked up the code reader, got a not-so-unusual error code for the camshaft position sensor (I don't remember the code). I've looked into the problem, it seems to be the wiring in many cases, but since this sensor was quite cheap and I didn't see any wiring problems, I went with the Dorman sensor. 1 plug, 2 small screws, directly on the engine (possibly arranged a little differently for simplification) Sensor installed, sensorโ€ฆ

Pros
  • . Satisfied so far
Cons
  • unreliable

DO NOT BUY THIS SENSOR

Need a replacement sensor for 2005 PT Cruiser. THIS PART RUN OUT AFTER ONE DAY AND I was stuck on the side of the road with my wife. With this purchase I pay the tuition fees. What I have learned. pay more for a quality item. Because now I still have to pay for this quality part. It's not this junk. Update: the more I think about this, the angrier I get. The next day I replaced this sensor with a well known brand from a local parts store and it worked great. This part failed when driving on aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Clarity
