Default Clear them all and see if they come back..... (long)

It's possible you need to replace a coolant sensor. I believe that G62 is the green one at the back of the head. Either that or it's the one at the radiator where the coolant line attaches on the drivers side. I've had to replace both The crank/engine speed sensor might be faulty since there is no signal....that or you need to take the car to someone that can check your engine timing to see if it's spot on. Since you're throwing a code for an over-advancement of the intake cam and an engine speed sensor code there is a possibility that your engine timing could be slightly off enough to throw codes. Got to get that fixed immediately before you blow something in your motor. Car should run rougher if your engine timing was off. Like I said first clear the codes and see if they pop back up. Since they are intermittent I would like to see if they actually come back.

Default I cleared the first six, then my car wouldn't start.....

Then I rescanned the system &amp; the engine speed sensor fault came up.

I''ve already replaced the coolant sensor when I replaced the coolant flange &amp; then I did the water pump as it had broken, so any overheating codes I'm figuring are due to that &amp; I can forget about them. Especially if they don't show up again.

It's the G28 I'm worried about as my car will just die at any given moment, either at a light or on the freeway doing 80mph!! Not good!!

If your car won't start, replace your engine/speed sensor.
