Replacing Camshaft Sensor - 99 2.8L
 

Hey all,

After replacing the battery, ignition coil, spark plugs, wires and a crankshaft position sensor due to my car not starting after throwing some misfire codes I am now getting a camshaft position sensor bank 1 code. Car still won't start.

Does anyone know which side of the engine is bank 1 and are there any other codes I should be anticipating after changing this?

Re: Replacing Camshaft Sensor - 99 2.8L
 

I'm 99 % sure that bank 1 is the drivers side. I had the cam position sensor code as well, i replaced it and still had the code. I know now it has to do with the wiring and not the sensor, so just know that if you replace the sensor it may not cure the issue. FYI I have an A6 2.8 as well.

I have a 98 A6 Quattro with same issue. Did replacing camshaft position sensor fix your issue, if not what did?
