Maybe celebrated prematurely. The car just had a huge miss twice on second gear like it wanted to
die. I came back home and while getting ready to check for error codes motor died in idle. The error code showed 2111. I checked in the error chart shows it to be the rpm sensor. I think the car has 2 of them. I have to go to sleep and work early tomorrow. I guess going to have to wait to another day.

More detail required.
What is "a huge miss"? Skipping? Under load? All the time? Or is it a buck under load?
Did you check codes with the car running? If not, the crank position sensor will throw a code. POS and coil problems do not throw codes.

Link to Crank Position and RPM sensor location and function info (inside).
Just for information. As Tom says, usually, the 2111 code is thrown when the engine doesn't start. However, I do believe that at some point these sensors do indeed fail and the code is real. This may or may not be your problem.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4s6/msgs/116988.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4s6/msgs/116988.phtml</a</li></ul>

The car was running when I checked the codes. As a matter of fact it died just before the check and
I restarted it. but it also missed twice big time as soon as I went from 1st to second gear.
