We have been getting code P1380 on our car. It runs rough fom time to time so I changed the plugs. Which helped for about 3 starts and stops then the code came back. I was told that the camshaft positioner sensor might be the problem. I can't locate the sensor. Can you tell me where to find it? Also could there be another problem causing this code?
