Replaced camshaft position sensor because my check engine light was on and that was the error code given. My car also has a bad vibration and rattle sound especially when I accelerate. Changed sensor and still no change. What should I do next.

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.com.

A rattle can be caused by many different things. Can you tell approximately where the noise is coming from? Also, read through this link. It discusses the most common causes of engine rattles.
