Do you mean it cranks over and over or just clicks or does nothing :?:

Is it not still under warranty being a 07 :?

Cant think of anything common apart from cam postion sensors, but that is usually on the earlier vans :?

If its still in its 1st years warranty, phone the AA/RAC (whoever the cover is with) saying it wont start and has been cutting out, they come out look at it say it needs to go to dealer, you drive it there with them following you they then supply you with a replacement van for the 1st 24hrs and Ford then pay after that :wink:

BUT thats only if the van is in its 1st year :!:
