The car will run for a couple minutes then shut off. We have replaced the fuel filter and the module under the coil packs and it still does it.

Good afternoon.

Two other possibilities.

1. Crank sensor. make sure the wiring is good the the sensors. Common failure.

2. Fuel pump locking up. Another common issue.

Does it start right back up when it stalls out?
