Default Won't Start.

Was cruising with a friend at 55 with the cruise control on, lightly went gave it some gas to pass a car in front of me, and the check engine, tcs off, and slip light all turned on, it then proceeded to rev funny and act sluggish. Pulled over, turned it off then on and it was having issues turning over. Got it home and now it won't start, period.
I change my oil every 3,000 miles and sometimes a little early, have it done normally everytime at a reputable service center. Last oil change I just went around the corner, they put 5w30 in when it's usually 10w30. only has 85k miles on it and I don't drive it like a mad man. It's an automatic, the only thing I "Added" was a K&N box filter, but that seems to be fine, it's practically brand new.

Engine feels very hot but doesn't read hot on the dash. The heat is mainly around the throttlebody.

I'm gonna let it cool off overnight and call around tomorrow, what do you guys think?


Any help would be appreciated.

I'd get the codes read from your CEL.
My guess,given the age&miles on your car,a CAM POSITION SENSOR
has gone out.Could be the crank sensor.The code will tell you.
