camshaft sensor S6 C5

Post by marky mark » Tue Aug 11, 2015 6:09 pm

Help,
car ran like a bag of <beep> today on way home, felt like misfiring and was acting like limp mode.
No warning lights on dash.
i plugged it into v com and it cam back with fault code
1/ 17800 position sensor bank 2 open short P1392

2/ 17549 Load calculation cross check P1141

so i got a camshaft thing and fitted it to the drivers side (i assume this is bank 2) ??

code 2 then went altogether but still ran like a bag of <beep>.

i then got fault code

16486 mass airflow sensor signal too low P0102

the MAF is only about 7 months old Bosch part i have had a look at it and it seems nice and clean.
questions...
1/ Have i fitted the cam sensor to the correct side ?
2/ anything else that would give the MAF code.


supposed to be going on hols on friday in the car i don't need this <beep> right now.

Thanks in advance.
