[s-cars] No spark after accident issue FINALLY resolved

[Scott Betzold]

Well the damaged S6 fired up today!!!
I was tirelessly trying to resolve a no spark issue after the car was in
an accident. I was getting codes for the G40 CPS (replaced with a new
one. I replaced the ignition switch as well. I traced every harness
under the hood relate to the ignition for what seemed like three
times....No avail

Today I checked the cam timing... it was two teeth off on the Cam
sprocket. That means that upon the front impact of the accident the
timing belt somehow slackened and allowed the timing to get off. Seems
impossible to me....

The lifters did not sound happy for about 20 minutes. The car runs great
now and gets full boost. I was driving around the neighborhood with no
front bumper or passenger fender on the car, I got some strange looks.

Thanks to all those who gave me great advice of things to check and
troubleshoot.
