cam sensor replacement?
i'll be taking my car in tomorrow for the dealer to replace my cam sensor under warranty. i detected oil in the connector when i was about to install my extended cable. so i called the dealer they say its covered. but my deductible is $100. is it worth paying the deductible for them to do it. or is it something i could do for less.?

I think the cam sensor itself is over $100. I would let them do it.
