Need to confirm these sensors before I order them

[Jean]

I don't want to risk having to deal with used sensors, so I am going to just bend over for new ones.

I have an M52 and I am going obd1 so I picked up the parts numbers from an e34 525i. Would these work fine? I am going with an e34 obd1 vanos harness as well. I know knock sensors will probably be fine, but I want to make sure I get the other 2 sensors right.

sounds good to me! except that your descriptions are reversed-the first one(12141726066) is the crank pulse sensor, the second one (12141740959) is the cam position sensor.

Don't forget to pick up #11 and #12 so that you can route the cable. Maybe #10 in case you don't have it.

Hi Jean What year e34 were those knock sensors from?
i had a look at a 92 e34 with m50 dme 3.1 and couldnt find anything in the etm about know sensors...

I have no idea, this was like 5 years ago? I've since sold the m52 and all it's parts.

Just as a heads up, a 92 is non-vanos and does not have cam sensors. 94+ with the vanos introduced the knock sensors with DME 3.3.1
