Thank you everyone.
However, I still don't know which parts to buy to solve my problem
.
Does anyone have a 2001-2004 Jimny (M13A, pre-VVT) and knows the part numbers from aftermarket suppliers? Perhaps even the M13A VVT engine has the same sensors...
Someone? Anyone?

Hello,
In the end I bought genuine Suzuki sensors. In UK currency, they cost about ~£80 each.
First I replaced the upper one (camshaft), unfortunately, it didn't help a bit.
However, I then changed the lower one, at the crankshaft. That was a bit of work and some curse words, because of the awkward position, and some stubborn (stuck) nuts at the alternator. This time the car ran flawlessly on the motorway and on steep slopes. :laugh:
So I'm all good now.
Well, except that gearbox has to be taken out, replaced or repaired, and some other problems the car has.
But the sensors created the most annoying driving experience, and I'm glad that is now behind...
