Hi, Just a thought ECU problem, with that year 08 contact BMW at your local area it should still be under warrantee.

thanks twr its a company car so no probs on that score but i don't want BMW coming back and saying there is nothing wrong with the car at least i now have got something to throw at them i don't like the idea of my daughter driving a car that just cuts out, i would be scared to go in the fast lane if that was me, it doesn't take much to lose confidence in a car it would be in the back of your mind all the time,thanks again twr
