When you looked at plug on mine it seemed right but although put together the two halves hadn't been pushed fully home,so I suppose giving a weak connection.Once properly "clicked" together I had no further problems until cs packed in  altogether some months later

Excuse me for suggesting that there might be an elephant in the room, but is the fuel light on?

Just asking, like ;)

How is your 4 bar pressure regulator plumbed in?

If you Elite an MV6, does that make it an MVee-leet?

UPDATE,

Well after reading the codes via a paperclip test and failing to show any codes it finally got plugged into a tech 2 at my buddys dealership, again no codes stored and nothing showing of any concern on the live data whilst the engine was running with the aid of a little throttle. Plenun removed again and intake removed to check again for any spilit pipes and hoses including the brake servo pipe, all good. Replaced the icv valve rubber holder and plenum seal as i had bought it to replace a sloppy fit but no change in symptoms, wont idle when hot.
So decided to change the crank sensor with a new gen vx part fron vx, fitted said part and the car is now cured, idle rock solid for over an hour, so happy that it was the CS.
Seems i have found a new symptom of failing CS to add to the others that are known about.
VERY happy bunny.
Gary.

It is amazing how many strange symptoms are cured by a CS change on the V6's. Almost worth changing these first to eliminate! :-\ :-\ :-\
