I have an irritating problem though, the engine has a habit of stalling whilst on the move... maybe once or twice on my 25 mile commute, no apparent pattern, I can be poodling along at a steady 50, braking, accelerating... the engine just cuts out, and starts immediately I turn the ignition... I can do it whilst still rolling without even stopping... and she carries on fine! Any pointers to look for specifically? I will start a full change over of PCV / air / EGR delete etc etc asap...
Thanks...Phil.
A leakback test is first job on the cards Phil, then take a look at the contacts of the connector on the HP pressure sensor, especially if the car has had a common rail "tuning box" attached at any time
