I posted a question on 10-31-05 about my new (to me) 2000 sts that liked to shut off when IT felt like it. The responces I received all pointed to the "crankshaft position sensors". I had my baby in the shop twice before I asked for help here, and both times, the shop claimed "no problems found".
Armed with the info you guys gave me, i made a third appointment, told the mechanic about the sensors, he replaced both (for free) and since then, not a single unwarranted engine shut off! (So far, I hope I didn't just jix myself!)
I just wanted to thank all of you who offered your expertise and let you know some of you know more than the "professionals" out there.
Thanks!!! :2thumbs:

Sounds like you need to find a better dealer service! It took them 3 times to find faulty crank sensors.

Great news, Juniorverse, thanks for letting us know. Glad you were able to get it resolved. Sounds like whatever shop checked it out the previous 2 times could use a few lessons...
