    Has the in-tank fuel pump been checked that it is pumping fuel when the fault is present.

    Sorry, just noticed you said fuel pump has been changed.

    I think there is a relay that controls it, might be faulty.

    But certainly worth checking the pump has power going to it & is running when the fault occurs.

    An update to this thread,

    Got the car back and its running as it should so far, apparently after properly diagnosing the car it was the tandem pump.

    The garage put a second hand one on and so far its not cut out, but will take it for a big run at some point to make sure everything is ok.

    So, its had a new fuel pump and filter, relay, and now a tandem pump.

    The most interesting question is why all of this happened - dirty or contaminated diesel?
