i had a similar problem and i popped the hood and saw that the snorkel had detached itself from the throttlebody...hardly anything tho it was a tiny gap but it sure didnt like it. but i doubt its that

If the TPS is moving with the throttle butterfly the car will run like ****, end of story! It must be fixed in place and calibrated.

Yeah, the crank angle sensor was the problem, $350 from a mobile mechanic, sure to be more problems in the future though....

i had exactly the same problem with mine, turned out to be a combination of things. intank pump was dead, tps was rooted (which is for the ENGINE btw holdonv8), and the CAS. i ended up changing all the sensors before it ran again. good luck with it, see if you can borrow sensors off a mates car and swap to see what is farked. -jimmy
