Hi, i have a 2014 gxl prado auto, for the last two mornings it has been started, then driven 50 meters it has cut out. I then start it again it turns over a couple of times then starts, its then fine for the rest of the day. It has 9500 on the clock
No warning lights come on at all.
Has anyone experenced this issue?

Not me, I have a 2014 GXL D4D but it's manual and it runs like a dream (diesel Dream)

Sounds like its getting a bit if air in the system, my 120 did exactly the same after a service once when the fuel filter was changed, another 1/8th turn on the filter and been perfect since.

If you have had any work done on the fuel system recently check that work, otherwise nip up the filter and see how you go.

Thankyou.
