So is this why we where pedal testing, looking for codes?

Sounds a bit crank sensor to me.

Nope, ignore me, wrong member similar name.
Does sound like crank sensor though, have you checked for codes via paper clip test?

Touch of dyslexia Chris or too much pop!

did paperclip test-no fault codes came up

Crank sensor replaced with genuine ? and if so you might need to check its the correct one as there are different types and they get mixed up at the dealers somtimes.

will check tomorrow mate as that is one thing not replaced yet done everything except crank sensor.I know there are 2 types so if I give them engine code they will know(hopefully)

well done on sorting problem  erm if you have  the symptoms you described does sound like a failing crank sensor which sometimes will not throw up codes on the pedal/paperclip test, if it is cranksensor it could give up on you at any time, probally in the most unconvienient place going 
if i was you i would source a genuine cranksensor and keep it in your boot "just in case"
