This is my first post so please be gentle with me.
I have a 2004 corsa 1.7 CDTi SRi (diesal) it ticks over good you can rev it at side of road with no problems but when you drive it engine cuts out above about 25 mph.
It just cuts out no lumpy running or anything. If i turn key off and back on engine fires up straight away and runs smooth.
Any ideas anyone?

EML light on? could be it cuts the engine out to stop it doing any damage to itself, but allows you to go that fast to get it somewhere to be fixed?

could be the egr valve but if it is the egr valve they normally show signes of falure first, like lack of power or just chucking shed loads of soot out teh back, or rough running,
what i'd do is have a look at all the turbo and intercooler pipes, i had a focus 1.6tdci at work the other day with almost the exact problem would just cut out in 2nd gear then start fine afterwars, turned out to be a intercooler pipe had split and was only aparant under driving loads.

hope this helps
