Driving to work yesterday morning I came through a pretty decent “monsoon”
of a rain storm, hit a few big puddles then BAM check engine light came on.
Car drives fine but still freaking out, I took it to Advance Auto. They
hooked her up on their machine and it read 3 different codes (he didn’t
give me the numbers), however it was something to do with the Camshaft and
something exhaust. He preached doom and gloom and told me it could run up
in the “thousands of dollars”. I’m hoping I can do this myself and fix it
while saving “$950”. Thanks for the video, hoping this works!!!

I have a 2009 Malibu LS with 97,000 miles on it and the code po0014 came
up. Im not sure what sensor to replace

Thanks, are there two sensors? Mine says “Bank 1” I hope its this one you
just replaced… it was easy to get to.

I went to auto zone to get my car checked out and he said it was my
camshaft. But he said it read ithat I have 4. Huh!! I have a 08 chevy
malibu and I want to know if there is really 4 and if so where are the
others?

I have a 2008 chevy cobalt. I hit a nasty pothole yesterday and the check
tire pressure light came on. I took the car to a tire shop. They fixed the
bent rim and filled the tire with air. The check tire pressure light went
off. Cool beans!

Problem is, I drove away and the check ingine light came on. Shit! So
today, I took my car to Auto Zone. They checked it and the code P0341
indicated that there was an issue with the cam sensor.

I bake cakes and pies. I have never even heard of a cam sensor! But thanks
to this youtube video, Im hopeful that I can find a video tutorial specific
to my 2008 Chevy Cobalt. Thanks for posting and making it look so easy.
Wish me luck!
Signed, determined damsel in distress. .

Do you remember the code number when your check engine came on?
Thanks,

What was the car doing with the old censer? Running ruff skipping surging? 

Darius Ball says:

Thank You sir for presenting this video…… Im about to buy the part
right now and replace it myself. I give you a heads up on how well it
went. Look easy to do.

QueenBean says:

Thanks for replying. But is it 2 camshaft position sensors. And do you
recommend replacing both if so?

Carl Jones says:
