Car is cranking but not starting. Checked and changed spark plugs, fuel pump, fuel filter, MAP sensor, PCV valve, MAF sensor, coil pack, ignition module, checked and made sure it has fuel pressure, check that it has spark. Still can't figure it out. Any help would be great.

Will it run on starting fluid? Also how does the engine sound when cranking over? If not, normal you could have a broken timing chain. Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so I can hear the noise? That way I can tell for sure what's going on. You can upload it here with your response.

Here is a guide that can help us get started:

Also, we should run the codes.
