Sounds cam sensor, related if it's possible next time it does it squirt some water on the cam sensor to cool it down and see if that improves starting.

Crank position sensor. It's behind the alternator. Non genuine replacements available for ~£40 on abay, genuine ones about twice that.

wrong fuel reading, cuts off when idling and whilst driving and rpm drops and jumps.

What can possibly be the cause of this
