Help CEL with code P1340-1
Hi all

Can someone help with the most likely cause of this code. The code definition is Timing Chain out of Position Bank 1.

Car sounds fine and drives great until it gets warmed up. CEL then flashes and goes constant. The car then idles slightly unevenly and is susceptible to stalling.
but still performs normally.

My guess is a suspect Camshaft Position Sensor.

Any help really appreciated. Thanks.
