Cutting out

[Chris Gee]

Hi all. Had my cam belt and water pump done today, 2008 2.7 xf, running great before i took it in, got it back and its cutting out and taking a while to start. Had no issues before and started first time on the button. I plan to take it back to the garage on Monday. Any thoughts as to what the issue might be? Thanks

It sounds as if the timing is slightly out on one or more of the camshafts, it's the sort of fault that needs proper investigation though, not an internet diagnosis unless you have the right test gear and can do it yourself with advice/help from here.

That said, prime suspect would be as i said in my first line.
