Hello short and sweet . Took my daughter to her driving test and the very first thing after 4 hours practice the night before she catches the passenger mirror on the parallel parking thingy and rips it right off. It's one of those heated ones with the turn signal in it. 

The next day the car was dead and had to jump her. Ever since then she has ran like crap. P0365 and P0369 codes pointed to a bad cam sensor so I replaced it  (twice) still throwing same codes with misfires rattling like lifters at shifting (but in power shift I can keep those noises at bay). At 100k miles I did all the required maintenance. I rechecked plugs,wires and now getting ready to start testing O2 and other sensors especially since for some reason only 1 O2 is reading . The throttle is all over the place and that cat is operating at 1243⁰ F. Burns a ton of gas now and I have to get out and push her to get out of her own way. Step on the gas and honestly she sounds like a dying cow. Runs good cold but as soon as she hits 194⁰ F it starts all over. 

I have real time road reports, graphs, and other info from Torque for Android and FXDd

Oh I opened the air filter box to check the throttle body and there is a foam piece in the box with a covering of oil . It looks like it filters the PCV. 

Please any insight will help I'm fairly mechanically inclined short of engine and trans teardown. If it's not any sensor I guess the timing could have jumped on the exhaust camshaft??

Please help me with some ideas to get my poor Felicity back on the road.
