In the passed coouple of days my corsa has been cutting out while I'm driving, it shudders and then when I slow down it cuts out. Its been into the garage but they couldn't find anything wrong with it.
Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong with it??
please help

sounds like idle air control valve,
do revs come back down really fast or slowly?

Never noticed the revs, the car just cuts out and after i wait about ten min it'll start up again but doesn't last very long.

My pug did this, It turned out be a build up of dirt in the inlet because my induction kit sucks in loads of crap 
Also got the potentiometer adjusted, I think thats just pugs name for an idle control valve

mine cut out recently, did it twice (1,2 8v) when i was stud, started up again straight away but shot to 2k revs for a few seconds before going down, do i need to look into it or just leave it as it hasn't done it since, this was a few week ago.?

Just need to check the breathing ,, it is likley to be the idel control valve like mentioned above... quite easy to take off and clean... a garage shouldn't charge you alot though
