Hello all, need some help, car will not start, it stalled while driving luckily for me 100m from a garage.
Starter motor clicks over but will not start and the mechanic checked all leads, spark plugs all good, then he poured cold water on the harmonic balancer to cool the sensor down and then it started.
He said it was the crank angle sensor and that I needed a new one.
Has anyone changed this themselves because I am getting various opinions that I'll also have to remove the harmonic balancer to get to the sensor and that I would need a new harmonic balancer following the removal of the sensor.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
