A couple off weeks ago the battery light came on for about 30 min which I thought was strange as I've had a new alternator fitted 4 months ago. It went off so thought no more about it , I was out shooting a couple of days latter and was doing about 50 mph across a stubble field and just die died and I mean died instantly. I tried to restart and it would not start . I poked about under the bonnet and could no see anything a miss , I tried to start again after about 5 min and it started but the engine management light was on. I drove home about 40 miles no more problems , got a friend to do I diagnostic and the faults were P1112 Fuel rail pressure and P1517 Coded anti start operation . All reset and codes removed she seemed fine till 150 miles later doing 70 mph on a managed motorway in the outside lane instant cut out again . A real brown underpants moment when I got to the inside lane (no hard shoulder anymore ) artic's pulling out to miss me after 5 min jumped in her again and you guessed right away she went but cut out anther 4 times in 12 miles off the motorway . Did some digging on the internet and it seemed to point to the Pressure regulator on the fuel pump so took one of a pump at home and fitted it . No problems for 350 miles then she cut out again and would cut out every miles . I bought a new sensor fitted today started her up and the battery light is on now and she has cut out after 30 miles. I've got a second hand rail sensors so going to fit that tomorrow and see if that make any difference and see if the alternator is putting a charge out. Anyone had similar problems . Anyone know if the injectors coded, could this be a battery problem . Any ideas anyone.
