I travel over an hour to work in my VS ute.
I have a sedan also, but have never had this problem.
On the way to work, it stalled for a moment when I was nearly stopped and I just put it in N (auto) and started it again no probs.
On the way home it stopped and wouldnt start again. It fired fine and would start for half a second before choking out. Tried it a hundred times over an hour or so.
I was in the Burnley Tunnel!
I got towed all the way home to Geelong for free and later that night when I lifted the hood to check it out, the engine started fine.
Originally thought it was fuel pump, but now not so sure.
Perhaps something stuck in the fuel filter that settled? Something dirty in the fuel line?
Unsure what to do, as I don't want to just drive it and get stuck again...
First post, would really appreciate any help.
Off to get a filter for starters as I need it back in action ASAP.
