Car cutting out

Help required: My Car over the weekend cut out whilst driving and going into limo home mode.     Once the ignition is turned off then Back on it starts. 

The car will only tick over if a lot of revs are applied. 

I believe the desired fuel is very different from what the cars actually getting. 

The cars in the garage at present.

Any suggestions as to the issue??

 

Thanks

    Sounds like what a previous car done with me. Was an ignition coil for one of the spark plugs. Very quick to diagnose and fix, however they still charged nearly 100 quid to plug it in, on top of the part and labour.

    Sounds very similar to my issue. Was it the first time you'd driven it after the cold snap?

    The garage is struggling to find the issue with it. They believe it may be fuel related. A fault code of  “cylinder 3 injector offset learning at max limit”

    they feel the injectors are ok?? What do you think? 

     

    The issue happened a couple of months ago and the garage changed the fuel filter and noticed an issue with the connector on the fuel pump. The connector is ok by the looks. 

     

    Any advice would be appriciate. 

    Thanks

    Google brings up this but I'm not a mechanic...

    Causes for this P02D1 fuel injection diagnostic code may include:
    Vacuum leak
    Plugged air filter
    Cracked intake tube
    Head gasket defective
    ECM issue
    Cylinder 3 fuel injector defective Worn/cracked piston rings
    Cracked intake manifold
    Leaking intake, PCV, EGR gaskets
