2004 Dodge Intrepid camshaft position sensor

Thanks, changed it last week. There were two clips. A red one that slides across 1/4" first and then the flat one that you press down on to release the female side of the clip. I had to lift the plenim about 1" to get the sensor out and the new one in. Just left the bolts loose but in place so the plenim wouldn't move too far out of place and damage the gasket. So far so good.

I was quoted $370 to replace the camshaft sensor in my dodge 2004 - diagnosed after the gas milage dropped way down and the malfunction light came on (coincidental to major repairs done one week ago.).

Anyway, the part is $60, and I am wondering if this quote is outrageous or not. It sounds like I can buy the part and switch it out without tinkering with other parts. Is this the case?

Thank you!

They are charging $280 in labor, $82 for the part ( $60 at the parts store). Are there any post-install calibration efforts? From the discussion above it sounds like it would take me about half an hour to get a new one in.
Thanks!

Yup, still referring the cam position sensor. Travelzoo replaced his. Me - not yet!

It is a 2.7 V6.

I found it in my car, pulled it out (is there supposed to be oil all over the sensor?) And put it back in causing the malfunction light to go off.

However, I still plan on putting in a new sensor -- but every sensor I see at a parts store is just a little bit smaller / shaped just a little differently than the one in my car (they are for the right year, make, model, engine at the store). Maybe it is an after factory update?

Thanks!
