Hello, my engine is a 3lt. Engine misses. Engine light is on. Code test indicates camshaft sensor. Replaced sensor. Engine ran smooth for a couple of miles then engine light came on and engine missed again. Rechecked, same code, camshaft sensor, replaced again. Same result, ran smooth for couple of miles then light on again and missfire. Thanks for your help.
