So, I was head down the highway at 40MPH, she shudders and engine cuts off. This was in LA on Sunday. Towed it back home to SD last night and tarted doing my research.

117K miles, timing belt at 97K, battery is good, fuel pump is good, relays are good, fuses are good. Checked cam pos sensors and both are good and their harnesses are both reading the appropriate values, no shorts there either. I'm at a loss of what to check besides the Camshaft Adjustment Bank 1: Malfunction. I don't know what or where that is and google hasn't helped much. Here's what I've got going on. Cheers.

Sounds like the CCT or CCT pads failed on bank 1. Best to remove the valve cover on that side and take a look.

If you can turn the motor with a wrench, set it to TDC and then check the timing marks on the cams at the CCT.
