Engine cutting out
Hi,
I am running a 2004 CDTI which has and is running smoothly. This morning as I slowed down to come off the motorway, the engine cut out. It immediately restarted. For the final 4 miles it did the same virtually every time I slowed down. Each time it restarted with no problem. The check engine light has also come on. Coincidental with this, last night the engine seemed to run normally just a touch after it was switched off. This morning it is doing the same, I switch off, remove the key and the engine still runs for about a second. Any ideas? |

The HP fuel pressure regulator may be failing - it sits on the back of the HP fuel pump.
Worth getting the fault codes read before spending any money on parts though. |

Thanks. I am hoping it's ok until I'm off on Tuesday. Unfortunately I leave in the dark and get home in the dark. I shall read the codes and bear your suggestion in mind.

Mike is spot on, this is almost certainly a HP regulator problem
I have seen this type of fault when the radial wiring supplying the 12v rail to the regulator, MAF, rail sensor, glowplug relay etc etc has an intermittent connection Brian |

Thanks Brian.
Is that the connector on the left under the manifold? Also, is that the approx location of the regulator? Thanks |
