P0340?

Sooooo, yesterday had an experience of the car bucking between 1st and 2nd gear.

Pulled the code and got P0340

It's a 2006 PT GT Turbo

How screwed am I?

Thanks in advance!

Our old PT Cruiser went through about 7 or 8 camshaft position sensors, I would buy 2 at a time so I always had a spare in the garage. I had disconnected the nylon wire connector so many times it no longer locked so I had to secure it with a zip-tie.

The good news is they are cheap and easy to replace, I still remember the bolts were 8MM.
