hi heres one for you.
my van would start fine but as you were driving it would cut out no fade or splutter just as if you had turned the key off this would happen about three times in the first 5 or 10 mile after that it was fine for the rest of the trip.
then one morning it wouldn,t start but after persistant trying it suddenly fired up it did cut out a couple of times but got me to work at the end of the day it started fine and drove home 55 mile with no cutting out. i didn,t need it for a few days but started it and let it run for about half an hour each day for three days on the fourth day it wouldn,t start computer found fault codes saying it could be injectors i had the four injectors tested 2 failed had those recond replaced

I had a similar fault on a Renault Megane people carrier
But didn't find it until , I had someone else sitting in turning it over, whilst I looked in the engine compartment.
Fuel pipes to the injectors, the inner pipes were punctured fuel under pressure was flowing between inner and outer pipes and ballooning .
I had bought it from new and had it about 3 years
Renewed pipes.
All ok after that.
I had a Citroen relay to,medium wheel base high roof
jumped in one morning, turned the key nothing, battery was ok.
Found the problem the Bonding braid from the engine to body at the front is clamped between a manufacturers washer and bolt, this set up had created a high resistance from rust.
Take the washer off(bin it) clean rust off body and bolt clean braid replace without washer cover with copper grease , back on the road.
