    Have a 2008 Astra XE, suddenly died going down the road, cranks,but won't start.. seems like no speak at all.

    Replaced entire coil pack / rail, and the cam position sensors, still no start, going to try a crank position sensor replace, but getting conflicting info on where it is located.

    Anyone do this job before that can shed some light on where it is at on the engine?

    Not sure which is correct for the engine that was used in the US Astra.

    its in the bell housing requiring starter removal; http://www.fixya.com/cars/t13800850-...nkshaft_sensor.

    The YouTube video has a nice view of it from underneath the vehicle so watch the video anyway.

    youtube video; .

    The video is not correct for my model and the part shown is not visible on my motor. So if it is inside the bell house as mentioned, where do the wires and connector go?

    Which engine is in your 2008 Asta XE?
    ( You did not include the info so I did my best)
