very possibly the low pressure lift pump in the fuel tank a known problem
especially on a car a few years old , happened on my 110 X reg cost about
£130 from main dealers but fiddly to fit :( when it happens again try lifting
rear seat you will see top of pump and gently tap it .
.. ooh are those drugs for me Matron

It would seem that the engine managment light is showing yellow so at least the car knows it is sick
will check pump later

cheers
