Yes, it may mean deeper engine problems. A faulty camshaft could be either the cause of further problems or a symptom of further problems. Or, best case scenario, no further problems at all. Realistically, only a hands-on, eyes-on mechanic is going to be able to tell you if there likely to be deeper problems in your engine.
Yes. Cam sensor will determine the rotation of the camshaft, and if it does not sense it 'turning' the sensor will not allow the engine to start (it protects damaging the engine). Faulty camshaft or crankshaft sensors will stall engine and prevent restart until replaced.
Yes, that is one of many possibilities.
Possible causes could be,Timing gear misaligned,Faulty crankshaft position sensor,Faulty camshaft position sensor,Engine oil dirty,Incorrect engine oil viscosity,Crankshaft position sensor circuit is open or shorted,Camshaft position sensor circuit is open or shorted,
The camshaft sensor is faulty or installed incorrectly.
The camshaft position sensor is an integral part of the distributor. If codes and tests indicate that it is faulty, the distributor must be replaced. Last I looked a cheap one was $1,500.
The engine overheating, or a faulty gasket, or problems with hot spots in the engine.
The most common causes of check engine light malfunction are a faulty oxygen sensor, loose or faulty gas cap, or a faulty catalytic converter. These are all easily fixed problems.
The timing belt of a vehicle is responsible for linking the activities of the crankshaft and camshaft. A damaged timing belt could be responsible for a faulty engine.
engine coolant temperature sensor is faulty. engine coolant temperature sensor is faulty. engine coolant temperature sensor is faulty. engine coolant temperature sensor is faulty. engine coolant temperature sensor is faulty.
its either engine vibration,high rpm,black smoke!
Fuel delivery problems such as a dirty fuel filter, faulty fuel pump, faulty fuel pressure regulator. Restricted exhaust such as a faulty catalytic converter, crushed/bent exhaust pipe.
