    I don't know what year your car is, but does it have the secondary fuse box under the seat?
    I had a gearbox/starting issue with my car & it turned out to be corrosion in this fuse box under the seat. I took it out of the car & opened up each relay to clean the contacts. Touch wood never had a problem since, that's jinxed it...lol.

      Pure 53 plate 103000mls. Can not easily see a fuse box under seat.
      Thanks

        Removed the SAM and found slightly cracked solder joints( @7 out of 12 )on the pins for conector 11-3 (which seems to be a common one).Resoldered all of them and when I reconnected the SAM all connectors and fuses had spray of electrical contact cleaner on them.
        So have to wait and see if there is an improvement.
        Can I add car info to my profile?
        Thanks

          Update - since soldering the SAM I have not had any cutting out/stalling.
          So hopfully fixed.
          Thanks for all the help.
