Sorry a fault to report... Swirl flaps and cam shaft sensor
 
Hi guys, just seen a post trying to build up good reports of these cars, but sadly I have a few faults to report...

Basically I think I got ripped off by a garage to repair my swirl flaps. Got them repaired and very shortly after it came back again, I didn't have the energy to fight it stupidly. Essentially I currently get three faults which brings up 'engine system service' on the dash. Had the codes read, all sorts came up initially, but cleared them drove for five mins and three came back.

I don't know the codes specifically, but there were two for Swirl flaps and one for crank shaft sensor.

So my question is, is it worth replacing the swirl flaps again, and is there something else within the 'swirl flap system' that I need to do at the same time? Thirdly where is the crank shaft sensor on these, I'm thinking it will be easy enough and cheap enough to just change out the sensor. Trying to do this on a bit of a budget and in a bit of a rush before a trip north to Scotland!

I'm not too fussed about the engine system service light except that it has now started to go into limp mode when this comes on, however turn the car off for a few minutes, start again and it goes well. seems to be drinking juice a bit, probably doing around 25-30 MPG most of the time. Sorry for my ramblings, I hope someone can help!
