Are any of you getting a Cam position sensor code with these misfires? I'm getting p0341 cam sensor A, bank 1, with misfires in cylinders 1-3. Changed the cam sensor, but problem is still there.

Taking it to the "stealer" today and asking for a ECM update/flash. See how that goes soon. Hoping a good flush of cooling system will help me later.

Dealer didnt do a flash as it was supposedly not needed. Dealer had my ride a "week!" The Stealer during their investigations they told me it was the wastegate valve. They had to special order one. One the fourth day I called for an update and was told the tech is having problems diagnosing the CEL misfires and underboost. He tried a known working Wastegate valve and still didnt work. So now they say i need a turbo. Its funny because before I had a partial boosting turbo, now I hear none! CEL is constant and apparently I'm in Limp mode. Oh and they said i need a new heater core. WTF trying a heater core flush to get me by and looking for a good & economical turbo. K04? Hope I might have helped someone with my rant.
