2012 w204 Problem

Hi, I have a 2013 C250, it has some problem a while back (I stop at the red light and the car just go off and doesn't turn on.) Over the past few months, I brought it to 3 different shops and they all told me different things. A friend suggest I come here with the error code to ask for some expert MB opinion, so here we go.

2013 C250 Sedan 140k miles | Idle | Crank but doesn't start | Service B1 exceeded by 600miles

Code: P0073 P0341 P0340 P0365 P0366 P0002 P02610

P0073 is ambient air temp sensor located under front grill of car. Might of come unplugged (as mine did) or gone bad. shouldnt keep car from starting.
P0341 camshaft position sensor means signal to PCM is lost. Computer doesnt know the cam position as they are variable. Change the sensors in front of heads.
P0340 again, cam position
P0365 Bank B1 cam sensor needs to be replaced. These do go bad and you have 4 of them. 1 for ea cam.
P0366 bank 1 exhaust cam position sensor. I think your car is telling you to replace the sensors. Its not hard and there are youtube vids.
P0002 fuel pressure issues. there are vids on this as well.
P02610 ive never heard of but its an internal timer in ECM to let it know how long car has been shut down. Id google that one to see ho it affects performance

It's been a few months, do you think replacing the sensor gonna get the car start and running again? Or do you see a high possibility of having to replace the fuel pump too?

Has the Timing gear been checked?
The timing chain tends to elongate, affecting the timing and damaging the camshaft gear wheels.
