This has just happened again, while driving in 30 degree heat, the car turned off while driving 5 minutes into my journey. Tried restarting car, it cranks ok, but no start, open the bonnet, there's a sensor on the front of the engine on the left hand side (if you're looking from the front of the car). wanted to put water to cool off the front of motor or around where sensor is. unable to find tap. left bonnet open for 2 minutes, closed bonnet and tried restarting again, started first go. Should I attempt to cool off the front of motor with water, or can I get a spray of some sort, what is that sensor on the front of motor?


Thanx.
