2006 e350 with 150k on it. Took it to the dealer and they gave me quote for $3500 to fix the issue. I also went to a German independent shop and I got a quote for $1500.

I did some research online and turns out is the intake manifold that needs to be replaced. The actuator bracket arm is broken. I also double checked myself and it is busted. Now I am very familiar on working on cars but when I scanned the computer with my GENERIC. Obd2 scanner it gave me a p0017 and p0016 code for camshaft sensor.


My question is could the camshaft code be related to the actuator bracket being broken or is something else?

Here is the copy of the quote they gave me at the shop.
