Title: error code
Post by: mickyboy123 on 19 May 2014, 17:55:38

hi chaps, after a lot of trying with pedal trick without any luck, i resorted to buyin a code reader once again no luck wouldnt connect to the car. i finaly resorted to a garage and 50 pound to read code, as follows, PO340 camshaft position sensor no signal intermitant, my question is when i start the car sometimes the engine managment light comes on but if i turn of and restart its okay now i gues that this is the intermitant cam sensor fault. but i also have a permenent problem the car wont pull much past 3 and a half thousand revs. is could the cam sensor do that or do i have another problem :y
