I inspected the teeth on my eccentric shaft and it looked fine besides normal wear on the inside. Nothing was chipped. The worm gear looked to have wear and I hear since the sensor is in the motor they tend to go out.
I'm having the motor replaced first, finger crossed I won't have to change the shaft

UPDATE
I ended up replacing the eccentric shaft, servomotor, and all need bearing on the shaft and did the VCG gasket replacement out the door for 3.2K, motor and shaft cost 1.5k just for parts FML
was shitty moment since my entire year bonus went straight to that expense
but shes running perfect now.
on a little note, i flashed to bm3 and its way better than jb4. hopefully she lasts another 50k miles.
