Information
Black sensors were faulty ones and ideally should be replaced with grey ones as a precaution, even if the problem doesn't exist.
Please remember that although it is advisable to disconnect the battery, it isn't a necessity. Remember that if you do disconnect your battery, please make sure that you have your radio codes to hand.
Tools Required.
Replacement grey camshaft sensor & a 8 or 10 mm socket (I can't remember which it is off hand)
Location of Camshaft Position Sensor
Unscrew the bolt and pull the old sensor out
Old vs New Sensor
Installation of the new sensor
Installation of the new sensor is the reverse procedure of removal
