Replaces Bosch# 0 232 101 024 (0232101024) Replaces Audi / VW OE # 058 905 161 B (058905161B) Failure of the camshaft position sensor can cause a variety of problems, ranging from a no-spark situation to performance issues. These sensors are devices that contain moving parts and, as such, are liable to fail, although the majority of cars that have them will not see such a failure during the lifetime of the vehicle. Symptoms: A failed camshaft position sensor will show up in a number of ways. The worst-case scenario is that there is no spark in the combustion chamber. Other symptoms can include excessively long cranking time when starting cold, rough running on an intermittent basis, poor idle, stumbling or hesitation, a drop in mileage and stalling upon acceleration. These symptoms may also be caused by a failure in the wiring of the sensor. Significance: Most modern ignition systems are made without a distributor, and some of these use the signal from the camshaft position sensor to control the ignition timing. Without a properly functioning camshaft position sensor, the engine will be unable to run efficiently---even if the engine is designed to run using the signal from the crankshaft position sensor as a substitute.
