My 9-5 no-start experience (so far)...fixed?

My 2000 9-5 Aero (sedan, automatic) has been having hot start problems lately. After driving fine and then sitting in a store parking lot, the car cranks but does not run unless it sits for an extended period. This rest period must be longer the hotter the engine and ambient temp.
Although it had never had any fault codes stored in Trionic during these episodes, it finally gave me a code P0339 yesterday (Crank position sensor, performance problem). I replaced the crank position sensor (only $40 retail...amazing considering it is a Bosch part) and then drove it all day. It restarted hot every time.
It has never had a problem starting cold. It has previously had the problem often discussed on this board where the starter does not crank the engine when the key is turned, but since I cleaned the B+ connection at the starter, that has not happened again.
Just thought I'd share, since a lot of people are having these problems with 9-5 models...it *looks* like the new CPS has cleared up this particular problem. My DI cassette is 8 months/8,000 miles old by the way.
