At times when braking or changing gears all of the warning lights on the car flash. Sometimes the clock and mileage clock reset themselves and at other times the car cuts out completely.I have no idea what the problem is.Can you please give me some help?

What engine size?

I had a TDi in the shop that had a faulty ECM Power Supply relay... the Engine would cut out at random times.

Once I know your engine size (provide engine code if possible eg. AVH, AFP etc), then I can post the location of that relay to check.
