Mk3 Golf GTi - Fault code 00515 - Paul T
I have had loads of problems with my car, but last night a local guy came round who was able to plug my car into VAGCOM and this fault came up: 00515 - Camshaft Position (Hall) Sensor (G40) 16-10 Signal Outside Specfications - Intermiitent.

I have had probs with car like the timing is always out. Is it likely the sensor is faulty and is there a way I could test this using digital multimeter i.e. resistance readings, before I spend loads of money.

I have some electrical knowledge and posses quite a bit of test equipment but not automotive.

Cheers

Paul T

Check for excess play in distrbutor shaft , or fouling of the sensor as it rotates.
