no was waiting for a mobile mechanic to come out as i don't have a volt meter, he is now coming out tomorrow. I was just hoping to understand if a faulty crank sensor would cause these symptoms so when mechanic turns up i know if he's trying to get me to part with unnecessary money for jobs that don't need doing.

Car was fixed today, coil pack was oozing a gel/oil substance causing it to overheat and stop working on cylinder 3 and throw up all the fault codes. So am a very happy person this evening

Thanks again for all the advice.
