never known a crank sensor cause a misfire before.

Normally they cause a complete non start.

That's what I had this morning (see my post at 12:16)

I would go the route of changing the fuel filter, BUT when refitting fill the new one with injector cleaner.....usually does the job...

had a few renaults in the past with missfires due to the crank sensor and
also had a mondeo wdb 220 s class as i call them, unfair on the mondeo tbh
