1 Answers
The symptoms of a faulty camshaft position sensor in a Jetta are: 1. Engine power loss - After the camshaft position sensor fails, the ECU cannot detect the position changes of the camshaft, which affects the intake and exhaust volumes of the near-row system, thereby impacting engine performance; 2. Increased fuel consumption - When the camshaft position sensor fails, the computer will spray fuel disorderly, leading to excessive fuel consumption, hesitation, and failure to reach higher RPMs; 3. Ignition problems - The camshaft position sensor determines the ignition sequence, and if it fails, it can cause ignition issues, making the engine difficult to start. The Jetta is a compact sedan with body dimensions of 4419mm in length, 1841mm in width, and 1616mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2630mm. It is powered by a 1.4T 150-horsepower L4 engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm.
