Default Re: Engine Died at 60 Mph

I pretty much always have it, its stalled three times at lights in the past month. I did a test tonight and I definitely didn't turn the car off. It was a total different experience as when I turned the ignition on it started and engaged the gear box; Whilst this mornings just died and the gear box disengaged like it was in neutral. I then restarted and put into drive but the gearbox didn't engage until i stopped.

I'm a little concerned in case this happens again whilst I'm overtaking on a one lane road...

Like I said, no check engine light and no warranty. So I'm very reluctant to have the dealer take it in spend 1 week or more to NOT find the problem whilst charging me a fortune. Oh and I'd have to pay to rent a car. Who knows, maybe it will never happen again but I still would like to sort out the rough idle... I may change the fuel filter and plugs and if all else fails the MAF.
