Have recently replaced the crankshaft sensor,car was running fine then stopped all of a sudden ! Found oil leak from the pressure sensor,removed it,cleaned it,replaced it and the car run again,well for a wee while anyway ! Maybe crankshaft sensor again ! Only 4 mths old !

what engine have you got? as you can do the paper clip test to get the light to flash on the dash, that then can be de-coded on here with the list of codes and that'l tell you what your problem is, what engine you got first as some engines you cant do it with.
