I have a squeek under the hood that I thought was a belt related squeek. But after using a piece of hose to listen and reading a few post on this site, I am pretty sure it is coming from the cam sensor area. I have heard about the magnet falling down and some have said something about using some oil. I would just like to get some input on where to start with this. Right now it is like a chirp that comes and goes. Is this something that could cause a imediate breakdown? and should I be seeing a code for this. I discovered this after the noise started and I then pulled a P0405 code which is for the EGR valve. Found a cracked hose and fixed it. Still have the chirp. Where to start?
