At this stage, I'm not convinced there is a 13 code ;)

Lets wait for OP to recheck the codes...

I don't really have a volt meter and don't fancy been ripped off by the garage funny thing was I removed the cam shaft sensor plugged it back on then the light went out drove mint! Got back then the light back on ;( tryed messing about again a few times but no luck seems strange if can go from been crap to ok then mashed again???

When my cam sensor was on the way out it would do this.  Cleaning up the plug and socket with some electrical contact cleaner kept it going for a couple of weeks before the light would come back on.  Eventually, the period of working got shorter so there was no option but to change the sensor.  Once that was changed it was like driving a different car!
