Get your battery load tested , a weak / low battery can cause similar faults .Lkes of Halfords or any fast fit , accessory store will usually carry out f.o.c .

i took car to garage they checked everything and because the fault was not there then they drew a blank

I doubt they would load test battery , but could be wrong .By the time you went into garage , the alternator would probably nave boosted battery if it was low .But just a suggestion .Could also check all earths , especially from engine to body and connections at starter .
