Welcome to the forum, please share more details about the car.

Is it a manual?

Hi there! yes. she has a ZF5HP24 automatic that has just been re-overhauled... at great expense... 220,000kms on the clock.
XTC touch screen satnav, dvd etc. had it 3 months now but done alot of work on her, and still much more to come!!! currently
replacing engine sensors, just waiting for MAF and crank position sensors.

but suddenly she starts and dies almost immediately, repeatedly. i have replaced both left and right bank cam position sensors,
cylinder 5 coil pack and connected a fuel pressure tester to the schrader valve on the fuel rail and i get a constant 3,5bar pressure.
diagnostic comp just throws codes for maf sensor and throttle position/pedal sensor still want to check throttle body and intake manifold
gaskets... just replaced my radiator to further add to the bill... she's being a little bitch at the moment but i love her all the same!!!
