I recently acquired a 330ci a few months ago, and ever since I have got it, it has felt low on power, and recently has started stalling frequently. Firstly I put it down to a vacuum leak but after looking I have not been able to find one. I then downloaded INPA on my laptop to check codes, these codes came back:

106 VANOS control mechanism. Exhaust sluggish or blocked
65 Camshaft sensor (intake) error
83 Crankshaft sensor error
228 Lambda control deviation Bank 2
227 Lambda control deviation Bank 1
244 Segment time measurement faulty (crankshaft signal)

I already tried replacing the crank sensor with a new one, as it came up on my normal obd scanner before I did this, but when I installed the new one it would crank but not even start. So I reinstalled the old one and it worked fine again, in regards to starting the car. Im not sure where to go from here, whether to get a refurbished vanos or new cam sensors. All advice would be greatly apricated.
