Default CDTI - completely cut out at 60mph - scary

Hi guys,
Any ideas?
When travelling to chester zoo last Sunday my 03 Rover 75 CDTI just completely cut out on a bend! Managed to eventually get it to a safe place.

AA man said it was crankshaft sensor- recovered to home.
Bought a new sensor from Rimmers, replaced it, all good for a few miles.

Took it to Phil at Horners ARC in Manchester - T4'd ECU reset, all good. Travelled 14 miles and car completely cut out again, luckily just pulled off motorway before it happened.

The only indication of a fault was after the fault the Oil low pressure warning lights up and goes out straight away. Leave it a while and the car starts again but soon cuts out a short while after.

Currently awaiting to go through the AA process of waiting for man in van to confirm problem, then wait further hours for recovery back to Horners ARC for further diagnostics.

Any ideas of the problem? By the way fuel filter was changed 3000 miles ago and Both fuel pumps working.

I can't give a definitive answer, however I have read of people having issues relating to the wiring plugs after a filter change. Perhaps taking if plugs of the filter and pumps to rule out a free simple and potentially invisible problem.

Sounds like an injector leaking to me, that was the problem when it happened to me....
