How to replace the camshaft sensors of the BMW Z4

Model: BMW Z4 E89 - Years 2009-2016
Part: Crankshaft position sensor

In this video we see how to replace the camshaft sensors on a BMW Z4; these sensors are one for intake and one for exhaust. How can we understand that they need to be replaced? From the fact that if we try to start the car, it takes a while to start, because the ECU does not perceive the position of the camshaft. Changing them is not difficult, we have to remove the filter box, the CB Valve duct, and behind we find the intake side sensor, while underneath on the other side there is the exhaust side sensor. It is just a matter of disconnecting two connectors and removing a 4-pin clip; at that point you just need to pull it out and put the new one back in.

This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
