Nevermind. Figured out what it was. I kept one of the o-rings from the aftermarket cam sensors before returning them. They are much thicker than factory o-rings and that was causing the sensor to...

N62 4.4i Camshaft Pos Sensor DIY anyone?

Has anyone done a N62 Camshaft Pos Sensor replacement DIY on their 4.4i? I know there are 4 sensors. I didn't see any DIY instructions on the Tips section and didn't see it in the search.

Thanks...
