Does sound a little like crank sensor, though that would through a 19 or 31 code...  :-/

Hi Nemesis. :)

You say it cuts out just before the fan cuts in?
What temperature is the engine showing on the gauge?

Also what code are you getting, just a code 12?

I am also thinking crank sensor is at fault but not discounting a fuel issue...

Oh and where in the UK are you?

I think LB asked the question in case anyone was local and could take a look.

There are a few "hot spot" areas in the UK for club members - like Nottingham.

Intermittent cutting out then running just fine, or running fine but just not starting for no reason is often the crank sensor (£50 and 30mins labour).
