W126 V8 crank position sensor

[khimani_mohiki]

I need a crank position sensor for a facelift V8 W126 or R107

GSF is your best bet.

My pal just got one for his C320 , £110 from MB , £37 from GSF. Exactly the same part , even down to the part number stamped on it , just not in an MB box.

Give them your VIN so you get the right one.

got one from ThreePointedParts for £20 delivered

Brand new ?

 

[NOMONEYBUTAMERC]

Probably used .They are Merc breakers , based at Ilton near Taunton, think they are ex- main dealer guys .

 

[khimani_mohiki]

no not brand new, last time i enquired at ECP it was £110

Second hand CPS's are complete false economy.

What's the part number ?

i got a brand new one from ecp for 37 quid last year!

Second hand CPS's are complete false economy.

What's the part number ?

only if it doesnt work

 

[Howard]

When it stops working after two weeks ?

Don't get me wrong , i love second hand bits , but some things you just have to buy new .

Whats the part number ?

 

[khimani_mohiki]

if its worked for 20+ years why would it stop working after 2 weeks?

A0001538820

 

[Howard]

How old was the one on your car that stopped working ?

 

[khimani_mohiki]

I didnt need one because mine stopped working, I needed one for the engine im putting in my W115.

Hope you can fit the CPS had a lot of bother with my 420se slipping the sensor down there !

Are you sorted mate? I should have one on my spare 5.0 M117 engine if you're still in need? £20 posted if it's any good to you?
