Crank shaft sensor. Do the pedal trick.

Sounds like the crankshaft sensor right enough. It's a pita as it keeps cutting out but will restart again after a short time. Simple fix though  :P

Just had someone look quickly, well I mean quickly, gone off to get a suitable vehicle to recover, quick plug in , no communication, probably a sensor, well I can work that bit out for myself , not impressed,

If you check the maintenance guides you'll see it explained really well. It's very easy but you need to concentrate on the counting  :D

If it restarts immediately after cutting out and then quickly cuts out again I'd suspect maf - as said try disconnecting it to confirm faulty.
If it won't restart immediately, but will after a wait and doesn't cut out straight away, then most likely duff crank sensor ;)
