Camshaft Position Sensor monitors the rotational position of the camshaft and reports it to the engine ECU.

The ECU uses this signal to identify cylinder position and set fuel-injection timing, working together with the crankshaft position sensor to coordinate sequential injection. The sensor mounts to the cylinder head and reads a target on the camshaft.

It is fitted to the BMW-derived diesel engines (Td4 2.0L and Td6 3.0L) and uses a three-pin connector with a D-shaped plug.

Frequently asked questions

What does the 8510297 camshaft position sensor do?

The camshaft position sensor monitors the rotational position of the camshaft and reports it to the engine ECU. The ECU uses that signal to identify cylinder position and set injection timing, working with the crankshaft sensor to coordinate sequential injection. It mounts to the cylinder head and reads a target on the camshaft.

Which Land Rovers does this sensor fit?

It fits the diesel Freelander 1 and Range Rover L322, specifically the BMW-derived Td4 2.0L and Td6 3.0L engines. It uses a three-pin connector with a D-shaped plug. Use your VIN to confirm the diesel engine variant before ordering.

What are the signs of a failing camshaft position sensor?

Typically hard starting, stalling, hesitation, or a sudden loss of power, often with an engine warning light and a stored fault code. On these BMW-derived diesels a failed sensor can stop the ECU reading cylinder position, so the engine may crank but not start.

Can this sensor be fitted at home?

Usually yes. It's typically secured by a single bolt at the cylinder head and unplugs at the three-pin connector, so it's normally a hand-tool job. Clear any stored fault codes after fitting so the ECU relearns.
