My 2005 Xterra did the same. Received the following codes P0430, P0420, P1800, P0300. Cleaned original throttle body, cleaned mass air flow sensor, changed O2 sensors, mass flow sensor, cam and crank shaft sensors, fuel pump regulator, replaced throttle body. It cranks at a cold start but once I drive it a few miles it won’t start again. Really need some ideas on how to resolve this.

It’s either the distributor cap or the timing belt.

I have a 2000 Xterra does the same thing it keeps showing all kinds of codes map sense code crank sensor all that it's electrical but when it's going on after it's warmed up it falls on his face and don't want to run but when it's going on I can hear underneath the dash or somewhere a clicking like a relay and it keeps doing that if anybody else here is that when it's going on let me know
