I have an 01 Volkswagen jetta 1.8 turbo 2.0 car that cuts off on me while im driving and sometimes doesnt start. Someone said it could be my speed sensor, is that it?

Scan the vehicle and post the code, with the fault, I can tell you what to replace.
You'll either have 12 faults, all related to the FP relay. Or an "engine speed sensor" fault, which will lead to the crankshaft sensor.
