Keep accurate camshaft position signals reaching your engine's computer with the Hitachi Astemo Engine Camshaft Position Sensor CPS0160, a new sensor built to send its readings to the Electrical Control Unit (ECU). It is listed for many models from BMW and MINI, among them the 2018-2021 BMW X5 2.0L / 3.0L / 4.4L, 2016-2018 BMW 330E 2.0L and 2018-2021 BMW X3 2.0L / 3.0L, with L3-1.5L, L4-2.0L, L6-3.0L, V8-4.4L and V12-6.6L engines.
A camshaft position sensor reports where the camshaft is in its rotation so the ECU can manage engine operation. If a failed sensor is behind a check engine light, hard starting, stalling or rough running, this unit replaces it. Diagnose the fault first, because those symptoms can have other causes. The quantity per application varies by engine. For example, the 2018-2021 BMW X3 with the L4-2.0L lists one sensor, and the 2018-2021 BMW X3 with the L6-3.0L lists two. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of models, engines and quantities.
