With Over 10 years experience as a motor vehicle mechanic running an independent garage fixing a range of motor vehicles from diagnosis to repairs.

“My son’s car needed a timing chain replaced ASAP. He works at the airport and sometimes there isn’t public transport available for the times he needs to be there. In desperation I trusted clickmechanic and I have to say I’m over the moon with the whole process. I received a prompt response shortly after requesting a mechanic for the job and made contact as soon as I knew the mechanic assigned. Ash was very reassuring that the car would be collected in the morning at around 8am and sure enough, true to his word he did not disappoint. Later that day, he called to advise the car was ready and listed in detail to me the works he had carried out. Needless to say my son is over the moon and so am i 😊 what a pleasant and easy experience and I think my little family now has a new mechanic who we can trust. I have 2 daughters with their own cars, my sons and of course my own, so there is plenty of work to be sent in the future. Thanks again (ash) @ motorfreakz

For me, there isn’t enough stars to give you 😇”

“My car had been in a garage for a timing belt renewal and was not starting properly, the garage said I needed a new starter. I contacted Clickmechanic to get a new starter but when I spoke to Leigh he thought the problem wasn't the starter, when he diagnosed the problem he found it to be a sensor. Saved me spending £200 on a starter I didn't need.”

Frequently asked questions about crankshaft repair & replacements in South Shields

Read our answers to questions about crankshaft repair costs, symptoms and more.

How do you know there is something wrong with the Crankshaft Position Sensor?

  • When the 'Check Engine' light on your dashboard is on.
  • When the engine won't start or cuts out during operation.
  • When the engine misfires.
  • When the engine runs rough (a rough idle for example).
  • When the car's fuel consumption is higher than usual.

When should you replace a Crankshaft Position Sensor?

As the sensor is located inside the crankcase it is especially prone to deterioration. It can be affected by oil or the significant temperature fluctuations inside the engine. The sensor can, eventually, fail completely, meaning that the engine's ECU is not provided with the information to optimise the combustion process.

In turn this can lead to the fuel injection malfunctioning, preventing the appropriate amount of fuel to reach the engine to combust. It can lead the engine to misfire and run rough as well as cutting out or not starting at all. All leading to higher fuel consumption.

For optimal combustion cycles in the engine it is therefore important to service the crankshaft position sensor as and when stipulated in the guidelines set out by your car's manufacturer. Professional and timely maintenance is essential to prevent further damage of other parts of the engine. Should you experience problems with a crankshaft position sensor, then it is advisable to have it inspected and, if necessary, have the sensor replaced.

What happens during a Crankshaft Position Sensor replacement in South Shields?

  • The mechanic will read the ECU for possible fault codes related to the sensor.
  • The mechanic will inspect the sensor and ancillaries.
  • If necessary, the mechanic will replace the sensor.
  • The mechanic will check the system and will test drive the car to ensure proper operation of the engine.
  • If necessary, the mechanic will make adjustments.
