Emergency question about the car
Hey guys how's everyone? Ok my question I was drivig back fromthe city today and I stopped at the light all of a sudden my car started to shake then it was pulling like it wante to take off a couple of time then the engine shut off... I tried a couple of times to start it back up with no luck. Waited 5 mins engine cooled down and it started back up with no problems. And the car had no engine or warning lights it just shut off, I'm really scared guys I hope someone has had this problem and it is an easy fix, on the bright side to this I am going to post up pictures of the meet I went to with the e60 people and a gtr really nice pictures I'll post them up when I get home. Any help would be appreciated thanks guys! In advance.

Hello GhostTeck,
I'd be replacing the Crankshaft position sensor. That is a common problem with these engines.
Let us know how it turns out.

+1 on the crank position sensor. Mine just did this about a month ago. Rolling down the street and everything just shut off. I think the part is about 100 bucks. Good luck. Nice pics!

+2...this happened to me when I first got the car. Scaring as hell especially when you are turning left onto oncoming traffic.
