Basically the the engine management light comes on any where between 4,500rpm - 6000rpm and it shuts off!! It like im not taking my foot off the gas and then back on!
Think it might be a sensor but which one fcuk knows???

What do you mean 'shuts off'.
My light used to come on once I'd revved above about 5krpm. Turned out to be the cam or crackshaft position sensor (can't remember which one)...
Why don't you just get the fault code out the ECU?

Do you not have a diagnostics point installed?
