dose the yellow { ! } light come on at all before it dies?
I had a problem in the middle of a very cold winter a few years ago when my car would cut out and die when it was warmed up and driving, in my cars case it turned out to be 3 problems, one was fixed before it happened again the next morning with the same issue,(that was the faulty Thermostat) but it turned out that some of the wires for my cars cooling system were damaged and another section of the same wires were exposed and getting wet, causing the car to think it was over heating, when it was not, and thus the car shut itself down to protect itself.
