Misfiring isn't really noticeable, but the rough idle could mask it. Did your check engine light point specifically to the camshaft sensor? Trying to narrow down the possibilities before I start replacing parts.

To be honest, I don't remember the exact code, I am so sorry!! But I do remember googling the symptoms, and the camshaft sensor came up a LOT. I would suggest going to a workshop, they should be able to check properly.

The camshaft sensor was indeed defective, as suspected. Turns out the encoder wheel was the culprit. Cost me 695€ for the repair.

Oh my goodness, I think I had something like this happen with my Clarity. The car stalling at idle is a BIG problem, I was so stressed at traffic lights! Was it misfiring too, perhaps? I hope you figure it out!
