    I am getting code P0345, bad camshaft position sensor, bank 2. I plan to replace the sensor, but I am wondering if anyone can help me find its location on the motor? I have found information leading me to believe it is on top of the motor on the driver side, also referred to as a VVT sensor. Is this correct?

    Also, is it part number
    $8 90919-05060 46393JF, Black Yellow Red, 1 Set
    90919-05060?

    One final edit: the starting problem only presents itself if the truck sits for a full day or more without being started. It is not a battery issue, though. The battery is fully charged and is not being drained, yet my clock and radio lose all settings when I have the starting problem.
