Default Randomly Dieing

Ok, so my car has been randomly dieing. It gives me the code for "Camshaft Position Sensor Malfunction Bank A" or something like that. I have replaced that sensor, the IAC and the TPS and it randomly still stalls every once in a while. I have also tried a different alternator because of a suggestion from a fellow MF'er but that wasn't it.

I am brining it to the dealer tomorow to have them troubleshoot it, but I was wondering if anyone else knows what my problem may be. Sometimes in first gear while holding it steady at slow speeds, the car seems to jump like I am pulsing the gas.

Could an old fuel filter be causing this? The car only has 13k miles on it but it is a 2000 so it may need a new filter.

Any other ideas of what may be wrong would be great also. I would love to have some idea before I bring it to the stealership.

Thanks for reading this long post.

It wouldn`t hurt to change the filter. I would do that and take it from there and see what happensbefore the dealer looks at it.

I will try and do a filter before they get at it. I just want it fixed though. I have changed a bunch of things and it could just cost me more to fix it myself with just trying stuff. I bought it six months ago with only 10.5k miles and now it does this. Pisses me off to spend my money on something and have it break.

Any other ideas of what it could be?
