'03 2.0TDCI tiptronic.
I have previously posted on this problem (many thanks for the replies), but may have an update.The problem:
Whilst driving, the car cuts out, including power steering and braking.The engine management warning light flashes intermittently.
The car was in my local Ford stealer last week, where they said there was no fault code on diagnostics, an ECU re-programme was done, and a new cam sensor fitted for £91.00.
2 days later the car cut out again !!
I have read on another website a piece about Mondeos and, more specifically, an article about (??) this problem.This is the snippet of info I found:

If this is correct, would anybody know if there is a TSB for this, and whether this work should be carried out FOC as a recall please ??
If so, should I also try to claim back the money I have already spent as this did not cure the problem (less the cam sensor).
