crankcase sensor heat shield
just wondering if anyone is aware of any potential issues with the cc sensor not having a heat shield in place.

mine aint there and gather its not the easiest thing to get at to replace - should I bother?

I haven't had one for the last four years and 120,000 miles, doesn't seem to be a problem. One less thing to rattle!

Looking at workshop manual sensor tells ecm crank position at start up and that's it.

If you've had a clutch then it will have been left out when the gearbox was refitted, they can be a pita to refit

Once they've been unclipped they never seem to fit back snugly even if the bracket is tweaked, the one on my last 2.4 rattled and buzzed at high revs.

I see you're still searching for problems ...CV joints ok at the mo? Wink Steve.

Shocked cv joints!!

Have x2 p2562 faults. Bearing in mind the turbo was replaced I wonder whether the wiring has been the issue all along and it's starting to 'show it's face' so to speak.
