Hi again guys,

further to my other thread, broke down Fri nite when revving my 110cdi vito w638 quite hard, Rac came out primed fuel filter which appeared empty and got it started, he decided it was rail pressure sensor seals, I drove home 100 miles at 45 mph as I didnt want to wait 2 hours for relay to be driven back at 40 mph!..

I have replaced the seals in sensor and a fuel pipe from filter to pump that the connection looked iffy on... have not managed to get it to cut out since, but it is not starting as good as it was, requires some cranking now, before started perfectly on first turn of the key... I feel that all is still not well? any advise on where I go from here?.. many thanks to those who replied before.... :neutral:

Sounds like it's drawing air from somewhere
