karlosR 3 Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 i was driving the car yesterday and the engine light came on on the dash. i plugged in a fault code reader and was confronted with a 16727 DTC. i've found a new sensor on the Bay for £25..... where would i find the sensor on the engine? how difficult is it to change? is it a DIY or garage job?any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

bungy 2 Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 Right hand side of the engine. I've been looking for a decent picture but can't seem to find one. There are 2 3 wire multi plugs in line with the camshafts. Should be straight forward enough.I've sent you a pm... Link to post Share on other sites
