I have been having problems starting my 99 range it just started doing this out of the blue a month ago. It cranks and i have to crank it like 5 to 12 times for it to turn over and start. Once it starts i can turn it off and on like regular the rest of the day, but sometimes i now find myself running low on power trying to crank it so many times. I bought a new battery, installed new spark plugs, new oil filter,new fuel filter, and i just ordered a crankshaft position sensor/inter-motor crankshaft sensor someone told me it could also be a bad Camshaft Position Sensor what do you guys think could be the problem?
I haven't installed the fuel filter or crankshaft position sensor/inter motor crankshaft sensor yet

crankshaft position sensor is your likely cause with no codes. especially intermittent.
make sure you order the correct one by the vin, 99 is a half year between two different motors and engine management systems so the parts don't match up at all.

CAN message: Engine air intake temperature invalid
No apparent effect.
There is a temp sensor before MAF. That could be going out, idk... Check to see if it is connected properly. BTW, is your rover a bosch or gems rover? This will really help us out in future diagnoses. You might consider adding it to your signature.

does it go away after you drive above 1mph initially? If yes, that is normal.
