Charge for replacing the VANOS was $98.71 (US) for the part and $75 (US) for the labor (total 179.88 inc. tax).

BMW wanted thousands of dollars to do the same thing. I will refrain from expressing further sincere disgust at BMW... anyhow I hope this helps as far as error codes and resolution to the stalling problem!
Just happened to me today. Slowing down the car shut off like i had the start/stop feature. Do you have a part number for the sensor?
