Hi there,

If it is starting and then shutting down, it could be a fuel related problem, i would first have the fuel pressure checked while on start up and see if you are loosing fuel pressure, if fuel pressure is OK do a scan and check for any unresolved fault codes that can relate to an ignition or engine management problem, start here.
