Don't take any notice of the thread you have linked in your post, as that is only relevant to the first gen engine, which is completely different to the second gen engine!
The code you are enquiring about P0341 is the, camshaft position sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance, and the camshaft position sensor is located here circled in Red, see image.

Dieseling when cold
My 2008 S ~ 50k has this code. However, I had dieseling at low RPM's... only when the car is cold. After about 2mi of driving it would nearly dissipate completely. I thought maybe adding an injector cleaner would help, so after 2 or 3 tanks with Mobile cleaner the problem was still there Plus the check engine indicator came on. I was only 1 mile from home, so I limped home and thought to check / clean my K&N air filter and have a look around. It was clean, but I noticed my coolant was very low... then I noticed my oil was very low as well. I topped off both and the dieseling went away as well as the check engine light.... Just wondering about the code... did it trigger the engine indicator, or did something else? Why didn't my oil light go on? It's been a long time since my oil was changed, why didn't that indicator trigger? Am I burning oil, there isn't any on the floor. I'll reset the code and see if it comes back. I'll also do a full oil/filter change this weekend.

My code triggered the engine indicator. then oil light came on during some hard turns. Yes you are burning oil because what is drained during an oil change is always less than what you put in. Once I added oil, oil light and engine indictor cleared. I found a used sensor online for $40 from a 2010 that had 30k miles. Did a freash oil change and plugged that sensor in. all good since sept.
