Default Re: new car

The crank sensor hardly ever goes bad. Only time I've seen them go is when the belt starts to fall apart and wacks it.
The car should still run with a bad cam sensor, just the injectors will fire in batch mode instead of SEFI.

The timing belt has a better chance of breaking during start up when the cam is stopped and before oil pressure builds up.
