Considered a "wear" item - not covered by power train wty.
No, an alternator is not part of the power train. It is an auxiliary to provide electricity.
Yes, it's part of the drivetrain, also known as a power train.
is camshaft part of power train component or engine
Yes and No. As far as the steering column no, that is part of the chassis electrical system. The ignition is part of the power train.
Yes, It's an internal engine part. Covered under drive-train warranty, if it breaks before warranty expires in new cars
No, it it not part of the power train
Should be. It's part of the drive train.
I guess that depends on if GM wants to cover it in there warranty. I assume that is why you ask. It is not hard to replace and should cost just under a hundred dollars (give or take). It is and electronic sensor. It just takes a reading back to the cars computer to tell it where the crank is. Now that being said it is part of the entire electronic set up that would replace the distributor. Now the distributor would definitely be part of the power train. No one would argue that. It attaches to the motor to make it work. The motor will not work with out it. An oil pressure, or water temperature sensor would also in my book be part of the power train. So in my opinion it would be part of the power train.
It probably depends on the pully in question. A power steering pump pully for example would probably not be considered part of the powertrain. A water pump pully on the other hand may be. Really there is no true definition of what is "powertrain". If you are referring to a warranty issue though that is different. Someplace somewhere a team of lawyers for warranty companies decide what is and isn't included under different warranty packages. Each warranty company has a list of every repair you could think of, and has predetermined weather or not they cover that item. Any time you buy an extended warranty for any vehicle it is a good idea to find out what they really cover. Unless you buy the better warranty packages they usually won't cover a whole lot.
part of the power train control module
No, they are different sizes/ part numbers.
my daughters friend has a 2006 Kia Optima and it broke down this morning, the repair guy told her it was the timing belt. Isn't this covered under the warrenty as part of the powertrain?
