I’m having a similar issue. I had to replace the crankshaft sensors. I have a cam code that comes up randomly but the mechanic tell me that’s nothing to worry about but don’t know what else it could be. I looked online and found it could also possibly be the fuel pump and or filter. I’m not sure. If this helps you great. If you found out anything else please let me know.
