Has anyone had a cam position sensor go bad?
My computer is spewing forth CEL's that the exhaust cam position sensor is bad (thanks T2). I asked around in some local circles and nobody had experienced this... and then when ordering the part from CED (thanks Tom), he indicated that he hasn't sold any of them... which means nobody's asking him for them-- 'cept me. Did mine just decided to die at 25k miles because I'm special? Or are others seeing these sensors fail? Or???

Mine failed 2 years ago. I think I had 15,000 miles on it at the time.
It threw a code, and ended up causing starting issues.
I had it replaced at the dealership under warrenty.

- Installation time-- 10 minutes (including putting away tools and washing hands)
- Time spent looking for that stupid gray plastic connector lock-- 30+ minutes (which I never found)
Has anyone got a spare one they'd like to stick in an envelope and send my way?

Kill me now.
Mine just threw a couple codes 341 300 303 304 and I was racing in the rain at Beaver Run . Not sure if some water got in it somehow or what but I cleared the codes and will wait for this *&%^&^%$@#%$^&*&^%$##%&__()*&%@#%$&^*( **** FN weather drys out before I try to dry it out. Car was running great on the NTO1s even in the rain
