Subject: Faulty crankshaft sensor help Sun Aug 02, 2020 7:51 pm
Hi We are currently on holiday in Cornwall and our 2013 T2 Kombi has broken down. AA have said it's a faulty Crankshaft sensor. We need to wait until tomorrow to try and call a garage but would be grateful for any advice. Are the sensors easy to obtain and would a mechanic be able to replace on site as we are are currently sitting on a camp site! Any help would be appreciated thank you

The sensor could be the same as a Vw Fox 1.4 and both have very similar engines

Thank you for your replay.
How long does it take to fit and are the sensors easy for garages to order?
some are very easy to fit others can be a nightmare just depends on were it is and what’s around it old 1 needs removal first to get part number off it so you get the right one

According to VW ETKA, the crankshaft impulse sensor is part number 032906 433, and knock sensor 030 905377c (Bosch equivalent 0261 231146. Both have a lot of equivalents, but as always get your supplier to double check suitability. Hope you get it sorted.
