Default Replace Motor Goat Rodeo

It's a long story I will keep short. Bought a 2009 370 base w/sport 29,500 miles about a year ago from a dealer. Car had clean full oil, 2500 miles later car runs low on oil goes into limp mode throws a code that says replace cam angle sensor. Dealer changes oil(what was left) filter ect. I replaced The cam angle sensor reset code but code comes back after a short time. Car goes into limp mode sometimes but if the motor is warmed up then shut down for about 10 seconds when restarted the car run awesome sometimes for the whole day some times for for a short period. Took the car to the Niissan dealer told them the story they looked into said the oil was low and I needed a new engine. Got a second opinion at another Nissan dealer. We all knew about the 2009 oil consumption problems. Did oil consumption test for 2500 miles.... No oil loss??? So confused. They go thru the electrical stuff and determine that I have bad Timing Chains. $7000.00. I think it would be a better choice to replace with a used motor at about $6000.00. Please one of you guru's tell me that they are all full of **** and it a bad vacuum tube or something. There alot I left out here but this is such a goat rodeo it hard to write all down. HELP PLEASE.
