Engine dies on me then starts up again vaxhall vectra 2.2 dti estate

Not familiar with the vehicle however, if the "d" in "dti" stands for diesel, id check the large fuel filter; usually under the hood (bonnet). Possibly only needs the air bled out -especially if the filter has been changed recently.

You need to test the fuel pressure and not guess, you have no idea really what is causing this problem without comprehensive diagnostics being done.

Diesel filter location vectra v6 cdti

It is an internal / insert paper filter, follow the fuel lines to the housing.

Special tools required to remove & refit, the new filter will damage if touched by fingers!!
