Hello group,
I'm sorry to write so much but wanted to get as many symptoms down as
I could and I hope someone will be able to offer some suggestions as
I've run out of ideas!

Apologies in advance as this is going to be a bit useless given my lack of
mechanical knowledge.

I had something similar going on with my Mk3 (AAM) Golf, and it was
basically some cables or a small connector with some cables that had just
broken down over time. and had been causing intermittent running problems
like yours until the car stopped altogether. I think they may have been
something to do with the injection, but as I recall the connector was
located right in the middle of the engine area, on the top of the engine.
Just over to the right of the oil filler cap, I believe.

The guy chopped out the worn out bits of cable and somehow reconeected it,
and all was well.

Again, sorry about my vagueness.

Angus,

Thanks for that. It sounds good. We've taken the car back round the
corner for the garage to have another look at it tomorrow but if they
don't have any luck I'll take a look at that. Chopping in a few new
lengths of wire is within my abilities, it's discovering what is
actually wrong that isn't!

All the best

Mark
