Description of the problem | Crankshaft sensor and 2 camshaft sensors had to be replaced. Going uphill on a bridge that i travel 2x a day for 365/year, it decided to cut off while going up the bridge, i went from 52 mph to 0 mph and coasted to the foot of the bridge, it would sputter when trying to turn on and then after 20 - 30 mins, it turned on as if nothing happened and i drove home. The next day tried to drive over the bridge and it did the same thing going up hill. It just stopped. Mechanic says i had 2 bad camshaft sensors and 1 bad crankshaft sensor. The car still hiccups and shutters and acts like it is going to cut off again as i go uphill with the air conditioner on. I really believe in my heart the air conditioning is draining the power and somehow causing adverse affects elsewhere, i just dont know how i can prove the correlation. I don't feel like replacing those sensors is the end all to the story. I just don't know what else to do. |
