Camshaft Position Sensor > CHEVROLET CAPTIVA C140 & OPEL ANTARA 2.2L Z22D1 DIESEL ENGINE > 96868917 | GENUINE PART (GM/Daewoo Original Equipment)

This is a Genuine OEM Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP Sensor), identified by the GM part number 96868917. This part is the factory-original sensor for the Chevrolet Captiva (C140 Facelift), particularly those equipped with the updated 2.2L VCDi Common Rail Diesel engine (Engine Code: Z22D1 or LBS).

Important Note on Displacement: While your request specified 2.0cc, the part number 96868917 is specifically associated with the 2.2L Diesel engine that was introduced in the Captiva C140 facelift (starting around 2011), replacing the older 2.0L diesel (which used part number 96440319). Therefore, if your C140 model is post-2011, it is highly likely to have the 2.2L engine and require this sensor.

The sensor is integral to the management of this powerful diesel engine:

Injection Synchronization: In a Common Rail Diesel system, maintaining precise timing is essential. The sensor monitors the camshaft position and sends a signal to the ECM, which uses this information to accurately time the high-pressure fuel injection events.

 
Engine Control: The signal is vital for the ECM to maintain the correct phase relationship with the crankshaft, which is crucial for maximizing power, fuel efficiency, and minimizing emissions.

 
Using the Genuine Part (96868917) ensures:

High Signal Quality: Crucial for the sensitive, fast-response timing needed by the CRDi fuel system.
Guaranteed Fitment and Durability: Engineered to withstand the high heat, vibration, and duty cycles of a modern diesel engine.
