dacca Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 Needing help! I have a 1.7 SDI and have a issue which is that it will not start , I put key in turn and have no glow plug light , before it refused to start it would take up to half an hour of turning the key on off on off waiting for the glow plug light to come on when it did flash on it would start straight away no issue and when started had no problems ie didn't cut out etc but when turned off whether it ran for 5 minutes or 5+ hours it would still take just as long to start. Now I'm getting no glow plug light come on, now I have changed glow plugs, glow plug relay, fuel pump relay , have had it on a computer and not showing any issues gone through all wire's and connection and all OK and have changed little black immobiliser box that Connect's to the key reader and still nothing. As you can guess I'm a little stuck as to what it might be know its something simple please any ideas would be appreciated . forgotten to say that the car still turns over just doesn't fire up.

The fact the glow plug light isn't lighting up and when it does it starts is what's known as 'a clue' There's an upgraded part no on the basis the original ones were so troublesome. Call VW, shouldn't cost any more than £20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call VW, shouldn't cost any more than £20. The upgraded part can also be had from ECP for quite cheap. It has all the hallmarks of 109 though. No Glow Plug. Cranking for up to half hour etc. Had all the same problems until I walloped the relay box and the car magically kicked in. Replaced the relay. Ran fine ever since.

lupogtiboy Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 Could be a reader coil fault, part of the barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
