The car runs fine for a while then all power is lost it cuts out and stops

ray365m most cars have a check engine light but yours has a extra good wrench light you need to have the engine scanned for codes possible crank or cam sensor problem? if that

It would be an advisory noise telling you that the power assistance is lost when the engine stops. Run fault codes to find the reason for the engine stoppage and repair the faulty sensors.

Its a sensor that increases the idle under load so it could be a sensor on the power steering rack or a sensor on the autobox when in drive with foot on brake ,its a sensor for sure but what and where i have no idea

The catalic converter is plugged up in the exhaust system.

something with ignition is failing--or maybe a wire gettn hott--a code like that is combustion related--hav a data stream run to give u values of engine performance--an independent shop or mobilemech has the equipment

hi, does it run fine when its cold then play up when it gets warm or up to near normal running temp, if this is the case then the chances are the oxygen sensor needs replacing, if it runs rough from cold then it could be mass air flower sensor

Sounds like the large power wire (starter wire) is routed too close to the VSS. Sounds silly, but it can keep the engine from running.

According to what you describe, it is possible that the valve cover on the cylinder head and the oil pan are dirty ,It is prudent to uncover and check

probably worth checking code to get better ideas for diag

It's the alternator man.
