Hi all
I have a vauxhall astra 1.4 merit L reg and has done near enough 120K miles. There is a problem with it at the moment where the engine randomly cuts out, which can be quite annoying when going up hills. It only does this occaisonally, its happened about 5 times in the last 3 months or so. I've taken it to the garage and they were unable to help as it happens so rarely.
I was wondering if anyone had any idea what it might be? The mechanic at the garage thought it might be a sensor on the fly wheel that wasn't working properly, Could someone explain why this may be the cause, because i couldn't understand what he told me. My initial thought was that there was some muck in the petrol occasionally interrupting the flow of petrol, but thats the best i can come up with.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Andy
