Just a heads up. Had a problem for the past few months where the truck would be difficult to start after it gets warm. When wintet came the issur went away but nlw that its warm again it started happening. If I shut it off and let it cool for 20 mins, it would start up again. Sometimes it would through a crank sensor related code (P0335/P0336) and would run like crap stuttering and popping until Id switch off and have it start again. Sometimes id get weird issues such as the tachometer going haywire, traction/stability msgs or suddenly truck goes off.
Had the battery replaced (was low) and the started replaced (was the original one). Checked and rechecked the terminals (which are good aftermarket)
It Ended up being poor grounding on the engine block. The bolt was abit loose and whem it heats up the grounding loses contact. Tightened it, zero issues now.
