Thanks to everyone that helped regarding my lambda/brake mot issues.
Just a quicky. Not long ago I filled up in ny local tesco, went to start and it cut out instantly. Went to restart and all I got was my engine management light flashing like crazy. After a few more attempts it started and drove fine! Any ideas what it'd be?

Re: starting issue
Not sure but could it be the crankshaft sensor, only say that due to it cutting out and not starting after a few minutes rest.

Re: starting issue
It had a new crankshaft sensor fitted about two months ago as it would start from cold, and die when it'd warmed up.. i was thinking possibly immobiliser or something because of the flashing eml ?
