Crank sensor - genuine on TC.

What is a genuine crank sensor?  I bought a Siemens one from an ebay supplier last year for about £40 and it's started to play up already!  >:(

Mind you it started just after I'd changed the dispack so the wire had been disturbed, which I was told can kill them.  ::)

Anyway I thought that the genuine crank sensors were either Bosch or Siemens?  :-\
Accept if its on ebay, its fake. If it turns out to be genuine, you're lucky.

Choice of 2!!  :)  The Mig is better served in terms of parts and servicing than I am round here!!  ;D

So this isn't correct then Mr Gix?  ???  ::)

The information there IS correct, as is what Chris was saying :y

Use those part numbers to order the next sensor from Vauxhall, not Ebay :y
Why do people even use ebay? Its full of muppets and crap. They buy the crap from muppets then wonder why what was purchased is crap and call the seller a muppet. The Muppets. ;D

So being the Muppet I am, I might have gone and bought a fake Siemens crank sensor from some muppet on ebay.....  :-\
Maybe. You'll never see the core members here recommend buying sensors off ebay.

Was it fitted the oof way, tied up away from the exhaust?

Yup!  :y
