Yes, likely faulty cam sensors in the positions indicated--or their wiring. The reason for the week or so delay actually also ties to it. The car/ECU runs a self diagnostic on them periodically. From D3 experience it only occurs with engine warm and you are just cruising along with easy throttle at mid speeds and fairly low rpm. Test itself is designed to try to be unnoticeable. If it tests twice with unexpected results, the code comes out and CEL on. From D3 experience that can be a week or two; somewhat shorter if doing long drives.

In my case the errors seem to appear only on car startup, not while driving.

ECU was updated today to revision 0007:
Address 01: Engine (------CDRA)
Part No SW: 4H0 907 560 HW: 4H0 907 560
Component: 4.2l V8/4V H07 0007

According to dealer, also transmission update was required with this ECU revision, so that was also updated:
Address 02: Auto Trans (J217)
Part No SW: 4H1 927 158 CQ HW: 0BK 927 156 K
Component: 0BK 42 FSIRdW H08 1008

Now I will monitor the situation and see if camshaft errors reappear. It they do then next step is to replace sensors.

I also seem to have a faulty Camshaft Sensor(s) which is likely causing other faults. Mine seem to clear themselves out and return within a week as well. My scan results are below.

3 Questions
I see there are 4 sensors total. Are they all the same part # 07L905163C ?
Are the sensors easy to swap out?
Does anyone have an actual photo of the sensors on the engine?

This thread in the D3 forum answered all the questions I asked in the previous post. I'm adding the link in case someone else encounters the same issues. I was able to locate the bad sensor and swap it out for a new one. I cleared my fault codes, ran another full scan and everything came back clear.

Expensive fix!
 

I had same problem. There's a TSB out http://australiancar.reviews/_pdfs/A...7-2_201607.pdf related to this. Dealer quoted me $10,000 USD to fix it! I'm 7K miles under warranty but 6 months over. Raised a stink and they are fixing it all under warranty.

Ok, the dealer has had the car for 3 weeks now. They're fixing all under warranty (even though warranty expired 6 months ago). All they can tell me is, "there is possible piston issue with the vehicle and they had to order more parts." Does anyone know if this TSB I posted would cause longer-term damage to the engine? Related to the piston? And if they have this thing for a month, how do I know they're fixing it right? It is a good dealer in Atlanta but still!
