I have 2004 Nissan Quest. It jerks while idle and go off. Scanned and have P0345 code. Bank 2 camshaft sensor replaced still problem persist and code isn’t cleared.

Here is what the internet has to say about that code:

With a P0345 OBD-II trouble code, diagnosis can be tricky at times. Here are some things to try:

Visually inspect all the wiring and connectors in the circuit  
Check for continuity in the circuit wiring  
Check the operation (voltage) of the camshaft position sensor  
Replace the camshaft position sensor as required  
Check the crankshaft position circuit as well  
Replace circuit wiring and/or connectors as required  
Diagnose/replace the PCM as required

Why does it say “tricky”?? Because it is a circuit problem and not a sensor problem.
