Car stalls at initial start up!
-The first symptom started from essesive cranking and usually the first start will die right away and the car will start right up without any other symptom.
Didn't do anything since it's still driving fine
-The second symptom, after a 20 min drive on highway the car throw CEL and go into safe mode (unable to rev pass 4k or so)
Brought to the dealer, they clear the code and say the CAM sensor was loose, they tighten it up and said the car is running fine now.
I went on another 15 min high way drive the car go into safe mode with CEL. Brought the car back again same code (CAM sensor i forgot the number) so they replace the CAM sensor.
-The third symptom, the car stalls on the first start up again, but it will fire right up after and no problem after, no CEL (but i haven't drive that much since i am kind of scare to drive this car now)
So Basically the car go back to the first symptom after they change the CAM sensor which solve nothing (damn dealership)
My car has 55k mi, stock except the Cat-back exhaust. I haven't done most of the maintaince work and the dealer check the fuel pressure and stated they are all within the normal range.
I know it's hard to diagnos something over the internet. but the dealership said there is nothing they can do since there is no CEL and the car usually right up when i left it there so i am hoping someone can give me some help here
Thanks
