   Every now and then my saxo would cut out. This morning driving the gf to work came to a roundaabout without any warning the engine cut out.. Looked at the dash and all the lights came on..
   
   The other morning car would turn over but then would just cut out..
   
   It only does it now and then like twice a week or something
   
   Does anyone know what problem could be

   ' Mine started to do that mate, now I have to turn my keys back towards me a little bit whilst the engine is running. My steering went really hard aswell ( felt like the power-steering had gone, but that was full ) I now have to do that with my keys untill the electrics / lights dim a little bit then there fine lol

   Clean ICV out, take for a short drive afterwards to get it set up again.
