Two years of ownership and 115k on my H6.
Two days ago it started a little rough. I immediately plugged in my OBDLink. The battery voltage was a little low at 13.6, but it was also a bit below freezing. I've had the battery less than 11 months and installed new connectors with the battery. Car ran absolutely fine for 8 miles. Battery was at 14.2, and no pending codes.
Next time I drove the car, it drove fine for about a mile, then when I started to go from a light it nearly died, and the CEL came on. Checked the codes:
p0340 "Camshaft Position Sensor"
With pending p0301 and p0306 which are cylinders 1 and 6 misfiring.
I did the plugs and boots 11 months/6k ago with NGK Laser Iridium plugs and BeckArnley boots.
Could a bad camshaft sensor be causing misfires, or am I having a bigger problem here? Any way I can test the camshaft sensor to make sure that's actually what's wrong? I've been reading up and it seems like p0340 can be a broad problem - wiring, fuel filter, etc.
