Focus Hatchback 1.8L TDI

I HAVE AN INTERMITTENT FAULT THAT KEEPS OCCURRING WHILE DRIVING. THE ENGINE CLOSES DOWN AND REVERTS TO IDLE SPEED AND THE GLOW PLUG LIGHT FLASHES. TO CURE THIS THE IGNITION HAS TO BE TURNED OFF AND THE CAR RESTARTED. THIS CURES THE PROBLEM FOR A WHILE. GARAGE SAYS AS ITS INTERMITTENT THEY CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WHEN THEY TEST IT.
