P000B Code on DS3 1.6 VTI

Unread post by nkuch »

Hi All,
I've a 2017 DS3 1.6 VTi with 80000km.
Earlier this week the check engine ligth came up with the code P000B.
As i didn't feel anything wrong with the car i cleared the code.
3 days later it came back on.
Apparently is related with a camshaft position sensor.
I checked the oil level and it's ok.
As I mention, engine is running just fine.
Any idea of what the problem could be? Cleaning the sensor may help?

Thanks

You could try a new sensor since they do not cost much but it could be the timing chain is worn and needs replacing.

My daughter's previous DS3 with the same engine was sold at 90k miles, was regularly serviced, and she did not ever have that error. Your car has approximately 49k miles, so assuming yours has been maintained adequately and driven sensibly it could well be the sensor as Paul suggests.
