Erm, slight mistake, my friend who turned up yesterday for the running problem, it not a V6, i counted all 6 coil packs in a line so that makes it a STRAIGHT 6 an me a numpty

So any one got any idea's, still need to read the live data.

Cheers for all your thoughts in advance

Update people, cleared the codes, and started her up and within 30 seconds 1st code :
Description on my SO diag machine:
17748 camshaft/crank angle sensor wrong combination of ecu's P1340

(leave to run a while longer then the other codes appear, but if the cam an crank system is faulty then of course im gona get misfires are i ).

When you start it up, runs rough missing like a tractor,3 mile run, 10min drive etc an she smooth again,so even if she is a warm engine, as soon as you turn the ignition off, then 2 mins later start her again, same problem 3 mile run, 10 min drive etc an she smooth again.
Each time you turn her off, shes a lumpy tractor, my friends terminolg.

Thats got me stumped, as Ive never heard those symptoms before. From your codes, I suppose the starting point would be to replace the Crankshaft Sensor.
