Hope someone will be able to help...
Basically it's my gf's car... i've never witnessed it but she tells me her car keeps cutting out.
From what I can understand, when she's driving along the engine management light comes on so she slows down and the engine cuts out.
When she starts it back up it starts first time and drives but eventually the light comes back on and it does the same.
Crank sensor??
Thanks for any help!!

What do you mean flashed? Its hard to identify because it's okay sometimes and the eml isn't lit.

Crank sensor might come up just because the engine isnt running.
Id say speed sensor too.

My 1.4 Sport Was Doing The Exact Same As What U Have Described And It Turned Out To Be A Faulty Speedo Sensor That Was Causing It.
