P0365 back after one week with new sensors, also noticed rattling...

[dotpage]

Last week I replaced the two camshaft position sensors, cleared the codes, and all was good.

Since then I installed the BMW Performance Air Intake, but that was the only significant change.

This morning I started the car and was reading the PLX manual with the car idle, and 3-5 minutes in the SES light came on, I was alreading hearing a faint knock..

Used the iPhone to read the code and got this:




I cleaned the code, I also have the passenger airbag light on, dunno if that is the "unknown" or not.

I opened the engine compartment and the knock seems to be coming from under the intake cover...

Went out for a 2-3 mile drive and code did not show up again.

Any ideas/suggestions?

Did you change both intake and exhaust CP sensors?

Yeap

Are you 100% positive you replaced them with OEM sensors?

[dotpage]

I am asking my supplier that question now, if not, I'll re-replace them, if yes, can it be related to the rattle?


EDIT: OEM

Okay so I'm not sure what your rattle is related to

OEM can mean a lot of things, sadly. It's better to know a manufacturer name or the vendor you purchased from to verify.
I've read about the camshaft sensors being finicky, especially aftermarket brands.
Ive never changed mine, nor read a DIY, but is there a chance that the plugs could have some road grit in them? Disconnect them and tap or blow any debris out.

If suplier is lyingto me, could it be related to sensor?

Update: rattle is a pulley, stopped at indy and diagbis done, no issues with sensor.
