Could it be the Fusebox playing up?

Could be fusebox or the main loom multi plugs under the pass' side bonnet vent - they corrode and give wrong signals to the ECU - worth checking as they're both very common issues with the EsCos.

Could also be any of the associated wiring for the sensors......


Good luck with it.

Also worth checking the fuel pump relay (make sure it is seated OK)
