take it to a mechanic with the correct diagnostic tools for your car.possibly a holden dealer would be a good place to start so you dont end up with some other monkey "guessing" what could be wrong whilst telling you he knows what he's doing

Crank sensors about $300 (buy from UK) its a Vauxhall Astra there or Opel Astra in the rest of Europe. McGyver method. Buy a can of freeze spray, run engine until it faults, spray the crank sensor, if it restarts you have found the fault if not look further.
