Hey nick, yet another follow up question. Your last reply to my question was could be the esentric shaft sensor. I just replaced that as well. Unfortunately no change. Car will start, idle will fluctuate then smooth out. However after a small drive 10-15miles turn the car off and then it won�t start again. Just cranks, acts like it wants to fire... just won�t start. Could it be the actual esentric shaft? From what I�ve read it�s rare, but the car does have 171k on it. Vavletronic motor, vanos, PCV system, cam shaft sensor, esentric shaft sensor, and spark plugs all replaced. Less then 500 miles ago. I�m at a loss with this car. Thanks in advance.

Yes, it can. if there is a fault for shaft position.

I would start from scratch here. When trying to start engine, check spark, fuel injector pulse and fuel pressure, volume, quality and engine compression.
