Help GT keeps dieing and grinds when starting and running!!

Does any know why my car might be dieing? It sounds like the starter is grinding or sounds like it when it starts and sounds like something is still grinding when its running. Weird thing is I turn off the car and it goes away, might be able to drive 10 miles before it stalls, and grinds when starting and running again. Its hard to start also. My trac off light would come on and my rpm's would go to 0, but would still be running. I did replace the Crankshaft position sensor and the MAP/ Pressure Sensor. That I think fixed the rpms and the trac light, I think lol . It had 3 codes to begin with they were for the 2 sensors that I replaced and the Mass Air Flow Sensor. But before I change the sensors I cleared the codes and ran it for a while and it only read the 2 codes I replaced and changing them didn't fix the problem, of the grinding, stalls and hard starts. Seriously this is aggravating!
 


found out the problem it was the crank shaft sensor my prix has been trouble free now o and btw the old sensor had a gold made in China sticker on it, that was probably the reason why it failed lol
