Engine Malfunction Help Please :(

[bilals]

hi all Could really do with some help On this one guys.

I have a 2006 2.0tdci galaxy it's never been rite since the day I got it. Okay so this is what happens at random times. Driving along road does not matter what speed starts to lose power then all of a sudden the engine cuts off sign on the dash engine malfunction. I try to restart the engine it seems to be turning over fine but will not start the engine I could do it 50 times it will still not start!

I'm with AA so called them out the he could not start it. He was there a few hours scratching his head. Anyways At the end he took the air pipe of the air filter and sprayed some easy start while I turned the key engine did not sound good but it finally started. Sign on the dashboard gone and driving sweet once again.

Now I have the car parked on the driveway because this happend more often and I had to spray down the pipe to get it going everytime. It would even happen when the car was stood still . Really don't know where to start on this one has anyone come across same problem could do with advice as I don't want to be fitting part after part only to find problem not gone away.

 Thanks

With something like that I would expect fault codes in the ECU, has it been properly scanned to see what's been logged?
