Default Need advice!!!!!!

This morning I went to move the car and when I started the car it started making a clicking clunk type of noise, which was not a consisted noise. I move the car and then shut it off. Later I went back and started it again, this time the noise started, then got louder and then the car stalled. The car wont start now, it just cranks the starter like the belt was off. I opened the cover where the belt ison the gear and there seems to be tension on the belt. I have a scanning tool: http://www.scantool.net/products/pro...products_id=41, and it had a code " P0341 Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance". Any idea if this can cause it not tostart? I was going to clear the code but was afraid to with this program. Should I? I also found that the pipe from the DV to the air box was disconnected "Air box side". Can this cause the problem as well? I appreciate any experiencesanyonemay have had. I did search but did not find any clear answers.

did your timing belt possibly skip timing causing your valves to be bent and therefore it wont start, if that happened i feel so bad for you, that means its time for a new engine, or at least a new head.... hopefully this didnt happen, and if you were running an open intake pipe withno filter attached the car should still start, it will just get nasty air in your car.

How would it skip timing? I hope that's not it. I have to see now when I can get it in the shop. This sucks[:@]

Well, I got my car back from the mechanic. The timing belt went. On top of that the head had 8 valves bent. Got everything done for 2601.89. I think thiswas a good price, what do you guys think?

Considering what all they had to do, thats a fair price.
Sounds like you have a decent, honest mechanic.

Are your wheels photoshopped, or are you really running on that thin of rubber?

Nah, those are photoshopped. Looks good in the pic though.

Well, in the pic it almost looks as if there is no tire on it, like its all rim, and the front one is not centered either.
Good try though.
I guess its a good excuse to re-do your sig.
