my car stalled out while I was driving. After a little, it started back up. I drove home and parked it. 2 hours later it would not start again. The next morning it started again, I let it run for a while, then turned it off. Since then it would not start at all. Took it to a shop and they said it is not getting spark or fuel and they think it is a crank angel sensor...Any ideas or suggestions??

Its looking like after I fix it I will be selling it and it doesn't look like I will be getting another BMW as my parents help me out with car costs while I am going to school and that is what they said.. :(

right on man, I put in a fan delete kit, I think this is about the same as far as difficulty, I was just trying to see if anyone else has had a similar problem and if you guys indeed think that the crank angel sensor is the problem.
