I got a bosh branded replacement a while ago for £15 and have had no issues. And easy to swap over. |

LR use Febi, as that's a PSA OE supplier.

Would you like to elaborate please Chips. I am currently arguing with auto doc, regarding a cps that was recommended by Alex on this forum. My old sensor was throwing fault codes, and I had a few "jerky" moments. The replacement sensor they supplied, when fitted to the car, made it impossible to start. Re-installation of the old one and it fired straight up ( albeit with clouds of smoke from the sunburnt fuel and non start !). |

I don't know the difference, perhaps others do. They may be compatible, the info varies depending on which site you use but anyway here they are

I've had that myself, I just bought another one, it has been fine for the last three years. Quality control has always been a problem, not just with car parts.

The target wheel and sensor was changed to the later type quite early on in production, and many early ones will have been changed to the later type during subsequent maintenance work. It's strange that there was smoke after the failed start, as a missing crank signal will or should prevent fuel from injected. It is possible that excess oil was drawn in while cranking, which may have been responsible for the smoke? Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate. The family car. 2009 Rimini Red SE TD4.

How did you replace the plug? FWIW I find the JLR connectors break easily when old; the locking tab snaps - but maybe im using the wrong technique to open the plug. Jules |
