    Just thought I would say hi to everyone. My wife and I have a 2003 GTP and that we have owned since it was new. I must say that it is one of the fastest cars I personally owned. We have never had a bit of problem with with it until just lately. The wife and daughter went on a trip and that is when the troubles began. While the vehicle is in operation, wether accelarting, coasting, but it is moving, it stops running. You could say it intermitingly dies. No ryme or reason. I took it in and had them run the computer check and no faults came back in the history. The check engine light was not on so no good there. The mechanic says everthing was good and doesn't show any problem. Drove home and 4 blocks from the shop it died. Still no engine check light. I have replaced the fuel pump, the pressure regulator, clean the mass air flow and flapper system. replaced the crankshaft position sensor. And still does the same thing. The last two things I replaced I test drove it about 10 miles, starting stopping, turning off the engine and restarting. Going fast, slow, stompin on it. Good to go. Then the wife drives around the block and it dies. Both times! I told her to lower the woman voltage output and got clobbered. it has the original batter that shows good in the idiot eye, but I will take it to a shop and do a load test on it.
