Replying to: cob (Feb 01, 2006 9:22 am) I have cleaned the throttle body many times to solve this issue. There are three nuts holding the body on remove them, put rags under the body and clean the inside with carb cleaner and a rag. This will last about six months, also check your PVC valve.
#20 of 48 Cam position sensor by lilengineerboy Nov 27, 2006 (10:37 am)
So I am doing some research for my friend who has a 2000 Olds Intrigue with the 3.5 litre V6 with 205k. Apparently, the lil bugger is throwing a code for camshaft position sensor, bank one. Autoparts place had the sensor for ~$30. My questions are 1. where is the sensor 2. has anyone done this replacement (and can offer some insight)? 3. what else could trigger that code besides an actual bad sensor? Could it actually be a wear issue with the timing chain 205k? 4. Anyone know of a good picture of the 3.5 with some circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what sensor is what? Thanks for your help.

Replying to: lilengineerboy (Nov 27, 2006 10:37 am) Looking at the engine from the front of the car, the camshaft position sensor is located on the left side of the rear head. If you remove the coolant overflow container, you will be able to find it very easily. You will need a 10mm wrench or socket to remove the set bolt, then with a flat screw driver you can very gently pry it out. Just pop the new one in and tighten the bolt. Be careful when attaching the plug. Replies to this message: lilengineerboy (Nov 27, 2006 7:39 pm)

Replying to: nbner (Nov 27, 2006 1:51 pm) Thanks that really helped. We were checking it out this afternoon and I thought that's what it was, but it was great to have confirmation. It also helped to have the how to...I figured it couldn't be that bad but I wanted to make sure you didn't have to take half the car apart to get access. I think I am going to help him swap it out after work tomorrow. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks again.

Replying to: pita1974 (Jan 17, 2007 10:58 am) This relates to the air pump that works when engine is cold to help reduce pollutants. Search the set of Intrigue forums for air pump and you'll find plenty of messages. I got mine replaced in my 2001 GLS last July... about $400 at the dealer. My brother's 1999 GLS had similar issues.

Replying to: 01intrigue (Jan 17, 2007 7:29 pm) Now I get the code P110 I wonder if the one code P110 is causing the other P410
#27 of 48 more service codes, any help !????????? by dieselissy Jul 07, 2007 (3:47 pm)
HI , I have a 2001 trigue, and drove by to Autozone and they hooked up the computer for free diagnostic.....mine came up with 2 codes, po-118 engine coolant temperature circuit hi input, and po-171 system too lean, bank 1?   My car does not overheat, and if the second code for lean mixture requires a oxygen sensor, where the heck is it? I got under the car today, and could not find it. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!! still trying to find a manual that covers everything!!!!!!

Replying to: dieselissy (Jul 07, 2007 3:47 pm) P0118 could be as simple as a bad thermostat.   For P0171, check out Post number 477 in the "Oldsmobile Intrigue problems & solutions -Read ONly" forum.   dtownfb, "Oldsmobile Intrigue: Problems & Solutions" #459, 10 May 2005 6:57 pm
