Car will run fine and then just die. Wait a few minutes and it will start back up and run again without issues. Never know when it will die or when it will start either. Tried starting it earlier in the driveway and it would just crank. A few minutes later started without any issue.

Have replaced the battery, crankshaft sensor and ignition switch and still having issues. Here is the latest Vag-Comm. I cleared all the codes but still have 2 ABS codes that will not clear. Did the Select Control Module and cleared them in the ABS module but they still remain.

Looking for any ideas as I am about to give up on this car.

Tks

Update:
Daughter took the car out and got to her destination. Came back out and it would not start, waited 5 minutes and it started. I really wish I had a clue.
