While driving engine will quit for a second or two, then continue on without stopping, or completely stalling. If it happens at a red light, the engine will stop, but will be able to start it up immediately and continue along normally. The only time it becomes a bit hairy is when it quits going around a corner, no power steering. But into neutral, start it up and no more problems until next time.
No point in taking it to a garage, it is working fine.
Your thoughts please
Regards
Doug Renault

Check it for fault codes, something along the line of P0335, or P0385, for crank sensor related faults. A proper scan would include checking freeze frame history. If the fault is random enough, it may show having no dtc's, but codes will still be present in freeze frame/failure record files.
