2004 Hyundai Santa Fe

I got an oil change and a radiator flush. 12 days later my check engine light turns on while driving on frwy, car hesitates and loses speed..then turned off. Take for free diagnstic reading and says it is a misfire code cld be ignition coil..code reset.
I get 1 ignition coil replaced and new spark plugs.
go to work next day, on the frwy and the car begins to hesitate again and lose speed. Take it back where coil was replaced and now reads transmission code p0733, and tests cam sensor...I have a bad cam sensor and now need to take it to trans shop....am I on the right trail? It was suggested to go to trans shop first...should I keep driving to work until I have the money to get fixed?

If you know someone with an oscilloscope, you can perform this yourself.

Thanks Zackman---This looks like the chart one place gave me but when i got the coil replaced and the tune up they kept it there and just wrote the code down for me...I paid for a diagnostic check but they couldnt go further and reffered me to a trans place...I havent made it in yet...but thanks so much for the response..I appreciate it.
