I got the camshaft piston sensor fault code. So I ordered 2 new ones end when I went to install them I could only find one on the right side below the head. I've tried look for it on the internet and every thing I find shows that the one for the left side should be in about the same spot but on the left side. My engine does not have a spot for the left side CPS, so could anybody enlighten me as to where the left CPS sensor is located. Also after changing the right CPS sensor I cleared the code and after a couple days of rough Idle until it warmed up the code had come back. I'm assuming the left one is bad. But can't find it. Thanks for any help.
You've only got one as you have the M62B44 engine - it was the M62TUB44 that got two of them to control the Vanos system - camshaft sensor replacement on the M62B44 covered here:

Thanks for the info that makes sense. Any idea what could be cause the CPS code. I just put
A new in. I expected it to run through away first, and it's seemed like it eased slowly getting better, then the code came back.
What code are you getting?
