Hello,
I'm having what seems to be a similar problem with my 03 Megane 1.5 dCi. Had an incident a couple of weeks ago where it cut out at 50mph shortly after starting, tried to restart and it told me to 'Select Neutral', then it started again whilst rolling down a hill at about 55mph. The problem hadn't reared its head again until today, when the engine was cutting out and saying 'Injector Fault' on the dashboard. Managed to get it started and complete my 10 minute journey to the shopping centre, pretty sure that was achieved with the willpower of my mind alone. Went to start it to get home, and it just wouldn't start - a beep and 'Injector Fault' again. Called out the AA, they hooked their computer up to the console under the radio, didn't show any problems. He looked under the bonnet, took the cover off, fiddled with a few things to check everything was in place but everything seemed okay. Then started to check the battery and fuses, at which point he told me to try the ignition. The car started without any problems, thus making me look a bit of a knob.
AA manny said that he didn't know why the car was now starting - the only idea he had was that one of the injectors felt a bit loose so he pushed it again, but he didn't think it was a problem severe enough to prevent the car from starting. Only idea I have is that engine management would have sensed a loose injector and stopped the car from starting. Other than that, I have no clue.
Will be trying to drive again tomorrow evening, so I'll keep you posted on any developments. Let me know how things go with your case.
