Re: need some advice.

I would focus on the P0336 and P1637 codes. The P0336 is a crankshaft position sensor fault and you need that sensor working to keep the engine running. It may be just a bad connection, nevertheless it is critical. The P1637 code indicates a problem with the alternator control line. A disconnect there will stop alternator operation and the battery will discharge, leaving you stranded, as will the P0336.
