Starting to have a problem with the engine cutting out.

Starts fine, then after 5 /10/15 mins if you come to a junction or traffic lights as you slow down it will cut out.
All dash board lights remain on.

It starts without issue.

Any thoughts

Sounds like a Crankshaft Position Sensor (CPS) they usually fail when the engine gets hot
