Replace the crankshaft position sensor .. there is another clear/white plastic filler bottle under the bonnet/hood to top up the coolant for the radiator, if you are not sure ask a mechanic to refill for you

Crankshaft sensor replacement is about £100 including part and labour ..a mechanic checking the coolant level should be free ... please make sure you have coolant in the car as this will cause engine damage if you don't ?
