Is this The Crank Sensor?
If so what is it supposed to click onto, as it has a plastic bracket with a clip on it?

Yes, that connector is crank sensor.

I have been told that when I buy a new Cam Sensor which look a pain in the arse to route, it will be a different connector?

No, you buy the correct crank sensor with the right connector!

I managed to do it so no great problem there :y :y
And the connector was identical :y

2 types for v6.
Look at sensor end (by oil filter). If metal, you need expsensive type with square connector (£60 + VAT). If plastic, cheaper type with oval connector, £35 + VAT. That looks like oval type from piccy, but double check oil filter end.
But then, you knew all that, as being a V6 owner, you always carry a spare crank sensor.....
-

The dealer probably can't tell you which type due to lack of breakpoint info on EPC
-
Just been up and taken a photo of this Crank Sensor at the oil filter end, I took it out and it is black plastic..

Was it a pain to route Steve?
-
No it was really easy, just had to make sure it didnt go past anything too hot, i had a heat shield on but never the less, it took me about 10 minutes :y :y
-
Ok, so routing the Crank Sensor do you just need to route it the way i take it off, or is there a better way ?

See Maintenence Guides! Route a different way.

Much easier and makes it much more reliable.....but then you know that because you always consult the maintenance guides first.......dont you :-/
-
The amount of times I have read the maintenance section and i have never seen that thread :-[
but i will get one tomorrow :y
-
Went to Vauxhall this morning to get two "Banjo Bolts" as one broke yesterday removing it from the Coolant Bridge.... they hadn't got them in >:( so he ordered them and should be here tomorrow.
So got back and removed and fitted new Cambelt and Tensioners, Water Pump.
A certain EP came over so we had a Massive Meet ;D
While I built back and cleaned EP fitted his new door :y
Great Day but a little cold.. :-*

What is wrong with you Countess, do you have a problem with Pink, were you bullied when you were young by girls wearing Pink, or beaten up by lads in Pink;D

Got the Banjo bolts yesterday, so was able to complete putting everything back together.
The car fired up and sounded great.
There is a pump that works for about 20-30 seconds under the passenger wheel arch which is quite noisey though....
Also the rear multi ram isn't working, so need to find the air leak today... but I cant remember where to put the "fish tank" one way valve though....
Also the the EML light is on all the time, be told it should reset itself after around 20 starts, but gonna do another paper clip test to see what comes up then post the findings on here.
Went out to my sisters in it, drives lovely but there is a knocking from the front passenger wheel when you go over slight bumps, funny though it doesn't make the noise when you go over "Sleeping Policemen" :-/ so think that could be the Droplink... how do I test to see if it is the droplink?
Cheers :y

You dont visit the help section much do you :o
If the ECU light is on you have fault present and it wont go off until you fix it.
The noise under the passenger wing is the air injection pump....
Difficult to test a drop link, you certainly wont feel any play with them fitted.

I do try and get in the help section but with putting this Thread here thought I would keep you up to date :'(
