It is likely not a cam sensor issue. What is the DTC # you got? It is likely the notorious M272 cam position magnet issue. Check out this thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...-bank-1-a.html

That is one of the codes for the magnet issue. Change the offending magnet and not the sensor to fix it.
