Citroen DS3 after a short run the engine wont start for 20 to 30 minutes.
Variant: 1.6
Model Year: 2013
Categories:
Running Rough, Starting & Power LossEngine & Drivetrain
Engine refuses to start after a short journey. Diagnostic code shows P0341 and refers to " Camshaft Angle Sensor"
The car is Diesel and when trying to start it seems to be starved of fuel.
There are no engine management lights on when engine is running.
The strange thing is when it does start, after sitting for a while, it is instant.

Need to replace faulty sensor if that is what shows as fault . Similar to crankshaft sensor failing which causes non start and then when it has cooled down works again

Thank you for such a swift response. I wasn't sure if that would cause the non starting problem but I have already spoken to a garage and booked it in to change the sensor.Need to replace faulty sensor if that is what shows as fault .
