Crankshaft Code - 160021

[M3_F80NY]

Hello,

I was driving earlier today and felt a sharp/sudden hesitation, lasted maybe a second - no lights or warnings in the idrive.

I pulled the codes and had 160021 Crankshaft sensor: general loss of synchronization.

Has anyone else had this issue?
Could it simply be a faulty sensor? If so any DIYs out there?

Thanks.

Car is stock, just downpipes and GTS tune.
Cleared the code have had no issues since

"Car is stock, just downpipes and GTS tune"

This made me LOL. You consult the wild Wild West of misinformation called the web instead of a professional?
