Vr commodore manual
When I start driving my vr is always starts to slowly cut off and on then completely shuts off after like 5-10 minutes in the first drive of the day but after i turn my car back on (instant start) it doesn't happen again, I have a new crank angle sensor so I'm pretty certain its my dfi, only started happening after I lowered it and it became super bumpy and my thermostat stuck open (other problem that im fixing) so I think its the dfi but open to other peoples opinions

vs commodore
Could be fuel related, pressure valve or blocked fuel filter even pump or pump relay. I don't think a DFI be the problem if its rooted then it wont work.

I'd try pouring water on the CAS next time it stalls. Sounding an awful lot like CAS to be. My Delphi from Bursons crapped out pretty quick. I was chasing the issue for a good six or more months. Mech couldn't figure it out as scans wasn't helping. We thought DFI until I tried water on the CAS. EBay Delphi replacement and probably 12 months on no issue since.

Nah coz it starts again straight away, after it stalls once it never cuts out again Intel ages after, my crank angle sensor is pretty much new
