I never posted here, but I had my own problem with this stupid sensor.
There is a fantastic writeup on RLF to change this thing.
Car would get up to operating temp, then when out of gear (gear change/coast) my engine would shut off. You were able to get the engine back started by popping the clutch, if you were still rolling.
Symptoms prior to this was RPMs would drop for just a second, like the engine cut, then go back up. Didn't know what it was at the time. The car almost through me into a guard railing getting off the high way when the engine cut out, going about 80. Had to push it off an off ramp, while cars were flying up on my ass.
My car ran fine and threw no codes after I changed the sensor, but I went to the dealership anyway to have a relearn done. Cost me $50.

p0017 is a camshaft/crankshaft correlation code. Means the PCM isn't seeing them move in the pattern it should. Possible to have a bad cam sensor or have it mis-timed if you have ever had it apart, or have a timing chain jump and the cam moved, lots of reasons this can come up. Rarely does it show by itself unless there was prior work done and something was put together wrong.
What actual issue are you seeing and what code(s)?
