    10 or so times. Coming off a scale or after long traffic jam over A RAILROAD CROSSING! the gas pedal has nothing and have to apply breaks and almost stop before it will respond. Anyone?

    It could be a faulty Accelerator Pedal Sensor or Accelerator Pedal.

    Isn't your truck Under Warranty still?

    What motor? D13?
    I had a similar turbo lag/delay caused by bad turbo actuator .The motor would run at idling rpm, or even on the highway when I pressed accelerator it took awhile few seconds to respond and increase the boost. It's part of the turbo and doesn't show separate code, i replaced the actuator twice, and every time the shop was trying to sell me a new whole turbo .
