[s-cars] CEL came on while driving, won't restart found code 4411 - HELP! :-)

Chris: Well I can't certify that you aren't insane.  But I can certify that you are likely frustrated.  Bob
 Myers will likely chime in but I know he tried lots of different potential solutions that seemed to make
 sense (based on the evidence).  He had lots of engine stopping/not restarting problems and never once
 the 2113 CPS failure code.  But when the CPS was changed, all the problems went away. Go figure.

For a relatively non-intrusive CPS replacement procedure, you might want to try this from the
 AudiWorld UrS-car FAQ page:

Good luck (fingers crossed for you).
