Knocking and stalling only when engine has warmed up

It sounds like a short. Check the wiring at the compressor to make sure nothing is pinched or damaged.

As far as the engine, the stalling when warm does sound like a crankshaft position sensor, but the knocking usually isn't associated with it.

Take a look through this link and let me know if you feel it mirrors what you experience:

Also, if you could record the knocking so I can hear it, it may be helpful.

Let me know.

An oil pressure test would be a good idea, but these engines are known for the knocking sound coming from either the cam phasers or rod bearings, root cause sometimes being lack of maintenance like oil changes, but I've seen engines with less than two thousand miles make knocking noises. On this engine, never ever go more than five thousand miles between oil changes! https://www.2carpros.com/articles/high-or-low-engine-oil-pressure

Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so we can hear the noise? that would be great. You can upload it here with your response.

I got my A/C to work but still have issues with my truck. I ran the scanner on my truck and it says system pass no faults detected but when I look under pending codes I get P0340 and P0344 camshaft position sensor bank 1 cut a. one says malfunction and then the other says intermittent. does that mean I should change the cam shaft position sensor on my truck and it should be okay or what? you all decide. please let me know I really need to get my truck fixed so I can get back to work on Monday morning. again there is no check engine light coming on on my truck at all, but that’s what my Actron scanner is saying under pending codes, but diagnostic code it says system pass no faults detected. can the cam shaft position sensor cause my car to start knocking and stall?

Pending codes are set when intermittent faults happen and the PCM needs to see happen consecutively.

The codes you have are slightly different. The P0340 indicates the PCM is intermittently getting a signal from the cam sensor and the P0344 indicates no signal.

With that in mind, I would check the connections at the sensors to confirm they are clean, tight, not corroded, and not damaged.

As far as causing knocking, anything is possible, but when there is no signal, it should go into a default setting. However, anything that has a partial control over timing can cause issues.

Let me know.
