Has anyone had trouble with the Cam angle sensor error code (1-2-5-5) ? The manual shows a big arrow pointing to where it is but of course it's not visible in the actual car. There is no explanation of what it does or how it works (magnetic ? toothed ring like ABS, proximity sensor ?) or which of the 4 cams angle it measures. Strangely i get the error intermittently, often accompanied with engine miss which requires immediate clutch engagement to avoid lurching of the vehicle, only when the engine is cold, when warmed up it does it rarely to never. Could the sensor really care about temperature, or could the camshaft itself have some slop until it is warm ? Thanks for any insight into this bizarre behavior ! jak bloomington IN '94 164Q -- to be removed from alfa, see http://www.digest.net/bin/digest-subs.cgi or email "unsubscribe alfa" to [email protected] -- to be removed from alfa, see http://www.digest.net/bin/digest-subs.cgi or email "unsubscribe alfa" to [email protected]
