Frequently asked questions

What does the camshaft position sensor do on a V8 Land Rover?
The camshaft position sensor reports camshaft rotation to the engine management ECU, letting it identify cylinder phase and time the sequential fuel injection and ignition. It's fitted to the 4.0L and 4.6L V8 EFI petrol engines in the Discovery 2 and Range Rover P38.
Where is the camshaft position sensor located?
The camshaft position sensor typically sits at the front of the V8 engine, reading rotation off the camshaft drive. It feeds the engine management system, so it's part of the electrical and engine management circuit rather than the fuel supply.
What are the signs the camshaft position sensor is failing?
A failing camshaft position sensor typically causes misfires, hesitation, stalling or hard starting on the V8, and can log a fault code. Symptoms usually come and go as the sensor breaks down with heat, which is why intermittent running faults often point to it.
How do I confirm this camshaft position sensor fits my vehicle?
This sensor fits the Discovery 2 and Range Rover P38 (1994-2001) with the 4.0L or 4.6L V8 EFI petrol engine. Check your VIN and engine against those applications before ordering, as petrol and diesel variants use different sensors.
