You are correct, the timing belts are set incorrectly. Google the correct installation steps and follow the procedure exactly. The usual issues are that the oil pump and cams are out of phase. The cam sprockets can and do move a tooth or two when loose. The top balance shaft gets out of phase as well (see the small belt).

water pump failed, and probably the bulb has gone on the dash or the sensor in the water system, it would probably be the the water pump bearing, so the pump would need to be replaced. depending on the engine fitted it will also need the timing kit replaced the kit would have a pump as well. overheating is the air in the system, it will damage the other parts like the thermostat. crake the head it could do more as well so replace the pump etc.

Sounds like you might be out of powere steering fluid, or power steering belt has broken, or tyre is flat......hope this helps

I would recommend getting the shop manual for starters. You'll need an engine hoist and a bunch of time. Someone experienced in the near vicinity would be beneficial also.

Have the alignment checked. They need a 4 wheel alignment.

Replace your waste gate on the turbo charger. It may be weak and opening up before your at full boost, common to go bad after a few years from the heat of the turbo. Good luck and keep me posted.

I have the same year and stalls out occasionally in the beginning and now I can barely drive a quarter mile. All of the parts you listed I've tested and appear ok but what I'm thinking is not fuel because it would act crazy gasping for fuel but the camshaft and crankshaft sensors. If either of these are failing then the engine stops firing and dies. Also could be the alternator or battery. If not enough charge then the car could die. Mine dies like I turned the key off (and don't think it's ignition switch) and gauges all just drop to zero still sounds like engine is sort of on until I finally coast close to stopping and then dies and oil light comes on.

smack starter with hammer while someone cranks if it works its your starter. Also make sure your battery has 12 volts.

Does it have a turbo? Sounds like it does. Might need replacing.

boost or vacuum leak.

I think if you have spark, the asd relay is working. You are right: check for power to injectors. Or spray some starting fluid into the throttle body intake, and see if it fires for a few seconds. If it does, probably the injector circuit. Then check compression. If compression is good on all cylinders, timing is probably right. Have you checked for possible trouble codes?

Have you checked the injector wiring? Each has only 2 wires you can check. If no power, test the injector power control module.

Bad relay, fuse holder, wiring or ground, possibly at the pump.

take the trans fluid cap off and use a funnel to fill the trans and make sure that it is running

There should be a diagram under your hood. Either on the hood itself or right by the latch where you would lean. There is normally a vacuum diagram and other info there as well.

check coolant levels when cold and see that they are correct first

Look at the fuse diagram on the the fuse box under the hood. The fuse box is beside the battery.

on the cylinder head passenger side of eng.is the cam sensor yhis is what controls whitch plug get fire and when ,it may be wet but should be dryed out by its self by now, I would look more at the plug in connector from the crankshaft sensor it is located on the top of the transsmisson were the eng. block meets the trans
