Hello,
I've had this happen about 5 times now and always at idle after a drive, with stereo & air-con on - Im pretty sure its when the fans kick in so it seems to me like a spike in the electric load on the car is causing it to cut out.
After I move it to P and recycle the key off/on it starts normally.
I've got a recent-ish battery, recent-ish refurb alternator so im wandering if it could be earth cables or the fans themselves ? Are the earth straps fairly common to need a look at?
Is there a voltage cut-off on the ECU that would cause it to shutdown at all?
Out of interest I grabbed a screen grab of the voltage measured at the battery , the dips occur when the fans kick in.
Idle voltage hovers around 13.7 volts
As ever, grateful for any wisdom from the experienced minds on here.
