Referring to my previous post "Any Time My Car Lost Power When I Start".
Today I'm started with my focus after a day under the sun, and when I'm normally going on my road the engine was shutting down and injection ligth was on. I stopped my car in the right side of the road, and I turned off the engine and turned on it. Then I restarted and when I'm starting from stopped, car doesn't start well. After some chilometers all ok. For the electronic test the problem is the diesel to the engine, but the component that produce the problem can be various, and the mechanic doesn't know what component is brokken. When the mechanic test the car all is ok. When I drive my car the problem is all days, but when the mechanic test the car all is ok. It is dangerous car shuts down in the road. What can I do if mechanic doesn't know how to resolve my problem ? Not an only mechanic, but 2 mechanics doesn't know how to resolve this problematic problem.

Have you had the mechanic ride with you to see what it does?

If the mechanic has tested the car as you say and the car is o.k and no faults show when scanned , it's hard to diagnose what the problem is .

Yes, the mechanic was with me in my car. Me and mechanic drive my car together, but car gone OK. The problem is occasionaly, it is difficult the problem occurs when the mechanic is with me. Today all ok, tomorrow I don't know, after tomorrow the problem will occurs or not, it is occasionally in the same situation. The electronic test is not OK, it had notified problem of not enough diesel arrived to the engine, but there are a lot of possible cause for it. I am worry, if car engine will shut off in a dangerous situation my life is in danger. I don't want to be costricted to change car for to be sure for my life.

I'd say just drive it till it gets worse to the point that you can tell what it is. If it's not showing up on the OBDll readers, and you can visually find a problem, then what else can you do besides drive it till it shows it's ugly face?

Just stay off highways, and fast congested streets.
