sounds like something electrical is failing in ignition system. check for spark when it dies to verify. CKPS is known suspect.

The car doesn't die it runs even after its turned off you can feel the pistons going if the wheel lock wasn't engaged an I could Putin gear I'm pretty sure I could put in drive and just go without the key
