Engine turned itself off!

[Full Spectrum]

Car VT II V6 auto.

I'm a stickler for warming cold cars. Yesterday i warmed the car for a few minutes and started to reverse out. About half way down the driveway steering straight the car died without warning. No warning sounds, no missing or any reason to suspect what was about to happen.

Has this happen to anyone before ?, is this common or an underlying problem what's everyone's thoughts ?.

Did it fire up straight away or is it still not going?

You can check the codes the same way as the VR/VS by shorting pins 5 and 6 on the ALDL connector and counting the engine light flashes.

Fired away not a problem.

I'd check the codes first and see if one has logged, then go from there.

I am going to have to check my codes as well my car has done the same thing within the last 1500km at least 4 times all my dash board lights come up and the car shuts down then starts fine.

Would that sender cause a hesitant start up ?. Would it also give the feeling of a slight flat spot.
