This makes a 450 starter motor change look easy. 45bhp & 54bhp Crankshaft Sensor The arrow below shows the location of the crankshaft rotation sensor. It’s sandwiched between the engine block, high pressure fuel pump and the EGR cooler. So, you can either go in from the top or in from the side. They are both terrible jobs but going in from the top might be a bit easier. From The Top Unbolt the high pressure fuel pump from the side of the engine. Follow the first 8 photos on this page . With the pump moved over to the left, you’ll need several socket extensions and a universal joint to reach down to the Torx30 bolt. If you have a magnet on a stick, you can rescue the bolt. I hope you have arms like Mr Tickle to reach in, disconnect the electrical connector and pull the sensor out. That’s if the sensor even pulls out. Penetrating lubricant can help if the corrosion has gripped the sensor solidly in position. From The Side Remove the rear bumper panels , the air box, the intercooler, intercooler scoop and the EGR cooler . Possibly removing the X-frame and exhaust will give you more room. You should now just have enough room to reach in under the high pressure fuel pump and disconnect the electrical connector, Use an L-shaped allen key type Torx30 to remove the bolt. Wiggle the sensor out of the clutch housing. It’s The Same Engine 450 CDI 41bhp 451 CDI 45bhp 451 CDI 54bhp They are the same engine. The only real difference is some extra stuff added to the 54bhp engine to control emissions and a throttle body. Click if info helped 10 likes 9079 views Print
