Re: P0342 error, no start -Cam Sensor?

It's a little hard to see the crank mark in that picture. Was the timing belt recently done? Is it possible it was installed incorrectly, is the tensioner ok? So that good thy you confirmed fuel pressure, did you make sure the injectors are getting power when you crank the engine? Yeah, the mark is...

It first came to me for bad, lopey idle and a possible timing and VVT inspection, but then before I started that repair, it decide...
