Angry 2006 Infiniti M35 V6 3.5L Cam/CrankShaft

2006 Infiniti M35 V6 3.5L
RPMs drop on highway then kick back in. Dash lights come on Service Engine(stays on since this started), VDC & SLIP. These lights stay on until the car turns off. Also when this happens I noticed the RPMs jump the whole drive. It’s a long hesitation to start. Then it just wouldn’t start at all. Sent it to the shop. They replaced the Crankshaft Sensor and reset the ECU. The day I picked it up I noticed a slight hesitation to start. Went home and on first start up it has that slight hesitation but not long. After I drive it, it takes longer to start now. Could anybody help me figure out what’s going on now? Plz.

I tried replacing the Camshaft sensor myself with aftermarket parts(BAD IDEA) didn’t work of course that’s when I sent it to shop.

First order of business is to get an OBD2 scanner on it to see which diagnostic trouble code it's throwing.

Most parts houses like AutoZone will do it for free.

Get into the zone, AutoZone.

Honestly, with a Nissan or an Infiniti, best to go ahead and buy a code scanner. Then pull the code, put it into the search function here and you generally get multiple hits on it.

Definitely agree but it depends on the level of technical proficiency someone has. An OBD2 scanner wouldn't mean anything if it was in my dad's hands, he's not a technical guy like that.

All you have to do is plug it in and read the codes. Then put the code(s) into the search function. I can't imagine plugging in a code reader is much of a challenge for the average person...then again I see how much trouble people still have with ATMs and self checkout so you may be right.

Thank y’all

I know how to do the code reader I just don’t have one. I’ll go to auto zone today and see what happens. I thought the check engine or service engine light has to be on in order to pull up a code though?

Not necessarily. Sometimes the computer will store a pending code that won't trip a light but the scanner will pick up. Cam and crank sensor codes are pretty common examples of this.
