Having a strange problem at the moment.
Happens in ONLY the following circumstances

Cornering around a roundabout (ie taking the last exit so going 3/4 of the way around)
Or taking a corkscrew sliproad onto a Motorway / Dual Carrigeway

So it seems to only happen during what I would consider sustained cornering

Normal bends etc go with no issues

The issue itslef: I come out of the corner and the car goes into limp mode. I turn the car off and on again it it works away fine.
The error code is something to do with Fuel Rail Pressure too low.

Anyone else ever have this issue?. The only other time this happened was when I let the tank get a bit too empty a few times in a row and I probably for some dirt in an injector.
Once it cleared it was fine for months until this new issue.

Could it be dirt thats getting shifted about and making the sensor think there is a pressure problem? Could it be the sensor itself?
 
On the idtec the fuel pressure sensor is prone to failure. Could be a simple fuel filter though
 
My mechanic did actually ask me when that was changed last. I've no idea. Might get that done first
