my comment was aimed at JayJay29, the originator of the thread - suggest you might want to start your own, but while you're here, the cranksensor is located next to the oil filter housing (on a V at any rate)  - but I wouldn't recommend changing it for another second hand one - unless you can verify its integrity

Hi guys seen to have sorted this its started first time all week.
After doing the oil change a couple of weeks ago i chanced the crank sensor had fouled with some oil during filter removal!
Took the crank sensor off it had oil all over it gave it a good clean put it back and she has started first time ever since. So until it does it again i will hold back on repacing the sensor.
Cheers Jay
