    I dont know. you didnt push it into the service station the 2times this happened did you? :)
    maybe fuel pressure problem.

    Is there any service history on the fuel filter and pump?
    Did you just top up or was the car almost empty?
    Long shot but I'm thinking maybe sediment in the bottom of the tank. Mebbe.

    Perhaps a dirty fuel filter... or pump.
