Try the speed bump test

I suspect the CPS.

Try this. Go over any speed bump and see if the engine dies then. The engine will rock a bit when going over such bump and if there is any internal wiring problem at the CPS it might show. I got similar issue when using AIP Electronics's CPS last time. Threw it out after about 3 months of use. Yes engine was able to start immediately after it died. No such thing happened when using OE Volvo even with splayed wiring insulator.

Check your OBD for any codes too. Mine gave out no code as the interruption was intermittent.

Regards,
Amarin.
