I started my car up to go to school and the check engine light did not turn off as usual

I couldnt miss class so i drove at the stealer after i was done with all my classes.

Rundown of what happened.

D2 General Diagnosis (Major)
1 CPM 124.95
60 Misc. Engine Repairs
1 CPM 103.50

1 272-051-01-77 Magnet (the part that was replaced) 26.84


70134 Perform short test - Has DTC POO22 Left intake camshaft magnet
Removed and replaced magnet, perform reset, road tested - OK

Total 258.65+ tax


Here are some pictures of the part that was replaced. Looks pretty easy to change but what do i know








What i am furious about is my warranty didnt cover it. I need to call them up and see what i can do about it...

Clkboi

Can someone here explain to me the difference between a camshaft magnet and a camshaft solenoid? please?

My warranty said they didnt cover it because it was the camshaft solenoid but on my receipt it says the camshaft magnet was replaced?? are these the same thing?

Seems to me a solenoid is an electrical magnet. Am I missing something?

Clkboi

I was thinking the same but wasn't sure. seems like the dealer and the warranty company are just using different terminology.

Happy early thanksgiving to me lol.

At least it wasn't that expensive. They did charge a bit much for labor though.

Clkboi

yah all i took them was 10 minutes. If i knew better i would just buy the part myself and do it lol.

They start off at 1 hour minimum. So even if it takes them 1 minute its 1 hour. Called stealer for a reason.
I am glad it was just that could of been worse thats for sure

dynomite05

Ouch! At least it's fixed.
