Hi guys.
Wonder if anyone here familiar with this problem. The car has only done 52000 miles and no problems with engine performance except the engine management light keeps coming on and of every about 20 to 40 miles.
It comes up with fault code P0016 which is Crankshaft position bank 1 sensor A.
Toyota wants to change a timing chain + tensioners+other bits at cost of around 1025 quid.
The cost of crank and cam sensors are about ?90 + vat for each.
Now here is my question. Should I just try changing just a crank sensor first or am I wasting my time and should face up to having to foot for the new timing chain?
Any help well appriciated.
Thanks in advance.
Nick.
