Engine cut out issue tdi

Hello
My Galaxy has started cutting out when driving but - after coming to a halt - the car will always start without any bother.
It maybe coincidence (and luck), but has generally been happening while car is slowing or while travelling at low-ish speed (<30 mph).
There are no other symptoms prior to the cut out and none following restart. The car will also run trouble-free for a couple of days or so before the issue re-occurs...
Today had a real near miss so not driving car until issue resolved.
I'd be grateful for any help!!
Thanks in advance.

BTW - It's a diesel so has no fuel inertia switch

Possibly relay 109 issue bad internal soldering

With VCDS lite (full version) need a code clearing or want to scan for faults in the north kent area, PM me. All for a pint of Strongbow.

First step is to read the codes and see if any faults logged.

Otherwise just guesswork.

Mine has done this a few times recently, usually at low speeds while manoeuvring. It's as if it's being starved of fuel. Sometimes turns over and over as if the fuel has run out.

check with vag com... Mine had a similar problem and it was the pump diesel temp sensor that was faulty
