Latitude Hard Start Stalling

I'm having trouble with my 2015 Renault Latitude with a gasoline engine. It's hard to start, stalls often when idling, and the check engine light is on. It has 47264 km. Anyone else had this?

I have a Latitude too, and that sounds familiar. Could be a faulty camshaft sensor. Did you scan it for error codes? That should help.

Thanks. Yes, I scanned it. The error code points to a defective camshaft sensor. Could the encoder wheel on the camshafts be the problem, causing incorrect ignition timing?

That's what happened to me. The encoder wheel was faulty, making the camshaft sensor report bad data. I'd suggest a workshop for diagnosis and repair.

Thanks for the help. The workshop confirmed it was the encoder wheel on the camshaft, causing the camshaft sensor to fail. The repair cost 695€. Thanks again!
