I have a 04 dodge neon showing P0325 and P0340 codes at the same time. It also has problems starting at times cranks but take a few cranks to start only on occasion, and when i am driving is it jerks and does want to accelerate, if i stop turn it off and restart it runs fine. I have changed cam shaft sensor, crank shaft sensor, transmission modular,and in-put out-put sensor. Help Please!!
Code 0325 is for a Knock sensor. Code 0340 is for the Cam sensor #1 if this is an engine with 2 heads and it is an indication of a single sensor on single head engines.
So if you do have a multiple hed engine, you may have removed the good sensor and left the bad sensor in the other head.
Remember to wipe the computer memory after installing new parts.

YOU MOST LIKE HAVE VALVES CONTACTING PISTONS AND NOT ALLOWING ENGINE ROTATION..A 2.7 ENGINE IS AN INTERFERENCE ENGINE AND IF GOES OUT OF TIME WILL DAMAGE VALVES AND/OR PISTONS

I seen this before first of all don't let the car dealer to BS the way to your money, most of the time is noting wrong whit the sensor it self but is the plug than goes in to the sensor this what i recommend is to buy another sensor from your local auto part store or salvage yard (cheaper) get three pieces of cable and solder directly in to the sensor brake the plastic around the sensor plug if necessary and secure the three cables to it put some silicon in between the solder and the place the new sensor on top of the old one so you now wish wire goes to which and cut and attach one by one. I now this works 100% i have done it my self many times if you need diagrams or sensor locations you can find that at www.alldatadiy.com now if you still have problems unplug all harness especially all the ones than comes from the back of the engine because that engine tends to leak oil on top of the harness if you have wires doing shortcut replace that section you can solder use heat string tube and change the insulation hose they sale those on part stores to put some zip tides on the ends and you will have your car back and will last Note don't let it get to close to the exhaust use zip tides to keep from touching hot areas.

My thought is to get a refund from the shop that tried to replace parts in order to secure your problem. The job of the shop is to diagnose the problem, not to replace items that may be the problem. Chrysler Master Techs are not trained to just replace parts, they fix the problem by diagnosing it properly.
You need to see a Chrysler dealership so they can attach a DRBIII and tell you exactly what is at stake.
I hope this helps you. I would be mad as heck.
I would not think the plugs and wires would be the problem because they would all have to fail at the same time to provide the symptom you experienced.
1. Get your money back
2. DRBIII

fuel filter or injection prob. get codes read for free at Autozone
SOURCE: crank shaft sensor? is this the same as cam shaft
no each one has its own job,
crank sensor is counting crank shaft rpms
cam sensor is counting cam shaft rpms
is there any lights coming on just as this is happening?
i think you should have the fuel pressure checked when it dies out,you need at least 50psi at fuel rail
