    You are either having a fuel delivery or spark related problem from what you are saying. You say that the car just dies completely when this happens. I had a similar problem like that with my BMW. It would just shut off though. Does the car act like its running out of gas or does it just die? Is the motor making any sort of sputtering sound or does it just sound like it shuts off?
    If you can describe your problem better, we can help you more. Does this happen after you hit a bump in the road or can it happen without bumps?

    It finally happend with my machanic in the car!!! he said might be a cylinder or soemthings, hes gonna bring it in the shop. It doesnt die that often but it does jerk when i accelerate. Ive notice no consistances with anything when its jerky, just that each time i smell a werid smell, but other then taht, the weather, heat, road conditons nothing affect it.
