Check out post #12 of this thread. He seems to have fixed the problem. I would use that as reference when you take it to the dealer.

Oh man, almost forgot all about this thread. Well as it turned out it wasn't the fuel pump relay like we had hoped. Date of this thread is May 2009. After replacing the fuel pump relay the first time the car died again in late July 2009. Again they replaced the fuel pump relay and it was good for a little bit. Then in March 2010 the car died again. This time it was the fuel pump itself. According to the dealership the bad pump kept blowing out the relay.
So the total bill for the new fuel pump:
$2,278.81
Thats total, parts/labor and tax.
So far not a single problem with anything. (knock on wood)
Only thing I've had done since March 2010 is oil changes.

Let me guess. you did not buy the part from the dealer or get a Bosh replacement. If I am right your replacement is probably DOA.

There is a reason I assumed and I was correct. Don't cheap out on parts its not worth it.
I recently order this one.
Amazon.com: Bosch 0261210170 Crank Position Sensor: Automotive

il let you know how it goes . but the weird thing is the first one i bought was way more money than the bosch. and i hope this fixes the problem of the car turning of after 10 min on park. do you know the reason for that?

There could be a number of reason. If you are still getting the CPS code then it is most likely the part heating up and not making the correct contact/readings. The most apparent sign of a CPS failing is the car stalling when it is warm.
Just because something cost more doesn't make it better. There is a tone of info on this site and Google is your best friend when it comes to car repair. Do some good searching and you will find answers to the most common problems and usually the suggestions on replacement parts.
Dollars to doughnuts the new CPS fixes the issue.

Have you had your battery tested? also these codes are not for the PCS but the TPS. The code P0600 was set when the ECM recognized a loss of communication and control over one or more of these modules for eight consecutive starts.
Like I said above do some searching. You also might want to start posting in the correct forum so people with the same car as you can chime in .
