Default Had timing belt done now its hard to start the car.starting after 4-5 attempts.

Iv just had my audi a3 2001 1.8t aum in for a timing belt change.when i got it back it is hard to start.its starts after thr 4th or 5th attempt.
Engine management light was on so put it on my computer it read a code for camshaft position sensor.so i changed that cleared the code and its still the same. The code came back on and it when into limp mode. Anyone got any ideas.thanks gav:d:d

Your timing belt is probably off a tooth. Give it back to the same shop to fix at their cost.
