Where is the Camshaft sensor?

[Digital-man]

Hi Folks

I had the Timing belt and water pump changed recently. Since then the car is running in limp mode. A basic OBDII scan shows - P0341 camshaft position (CMP) Sensor A, bank 1- range performance error and a P2562 Turbo charger low boost error. I've not got round to using Diagbox just yet as I need to find my interface.
I've spoken to the garage but they are saying the errors are unrelated to the timing belt change. The car starts fine and runs perfectly just has no boost. Can someone advise where the Camshaft sensor is located on this engine. pug 308 cc, 2.0 HDI, 163 BHP (DW10CTED4).

Here in the Netherlands was the same problem.
After long discussions where the garage keep saying "it's not the timing of the belt"
They checked it again, and surprise, surprise, the belt was wrong installed with one tooth!!!

Camshaft sensor is number 15 in the picture.
I would agree however this sounds to me like the valve timing is out a tooth.
Even if the cam sensor was damaged during the timing belt change i would expect that the engine wouldn't even start if the sensor was damaged.
The cam position sensors are pretty reliable on these engines, i dont think i have ever had to replace one apart from when it had been physically damaged after a timing belt failure.

I agree with that.In same case, even it's not answered in thread, surprise, surprise, everything happened after timing belt change.

In my opinion i believe 100% it's a timing belt issue.I recently changed the timing belt on my car (DW10FC) cause i don't trust mechanics nowadays. It was very easy to misaligned tooths or the crankshaft sprocket wheel gap if you are not careful. In images as shown, if you don't take the gap by tensioner, sprocket will not be aligned by half a tooth causing problems or faults on dash.First, sprocket must be in position as shown in pic 1 and after installing timing belt and releasing the safe pin of tensioner, it will absorve the slack of belt and crankshaft pin, will be exactly on the middle of sprocket as shown in pic 2. Of course crankshaft and Camshaft were locked with 8mm drills (they do the job) in TDC position as shown in pics 3 and 4. And as you can see i did the extra step and sign with marker the tooths that had to be in position on sprocket and camshaft. Also i confirm that Continental provides water pump with metal impeller (pic 5) as discussed in other thread.
In any case, if it's not timing belt issue, then they messed up something in wires or whatever.

Hi All,

Thanks for your detailed replies responses above much appreciated.
I managed to find my Diagbox Interface and did another scan. This time there was no Camshaft error, which proves a standard ODB test is inferior to a Diagbox test.
The following 2 Errors are still there and are keeping the car in Limp mode. Any Help regarding these errors will be appreciated.

P2125 Air Metering Valve
P2566 Variable resistance Turbo Charger.

FYI These errors weren't there prior to Timing Belt change and it may just be bad luck that these were going to happen anyway.
