What kind of problem, if any, do I have. Do I have to replace drive shaft and/or sensor. Car has 58000 miles.
Weather was about 35 degrees F when this happened - not really cold.

I just replaced my eccentric shaft and valvetronic motor at our independent shop for $3000 - dealer would have been $4500-$5000. Are you under warranty? If anything, I'd be worried this replacement is where you're heading sometime in the future.
