Hi all
I'm after some help please on starting problem with my 2006 320cdi.
It spins over but will not fire, eventually running battery down. If i recharge battery, it might start and be ok for the rest of the day but will be non start again in the morning. Had RAC out and he said lack of fuel pressure and is probably the high pressure fuel pump. He couldn't connect to cars ecu to see any parameters ie fuel rail pressure etc. The vehicle has done 188,000 miles and apart from starting problem and slight missfire at low revs it drives great. I tend to agree with RAC about fuel but the only problem I have is that there are no codes in the ecu for anything fuel related. Surely if it was the pump i would get low pressure codes?. I have ordered a new pump but I am loathed to fit it if this isnt the problem ( I can return pump if not used). The only other codes are to do with abs sensors and no. 5 glowplug open circuit, but it should still start on 5 cylinders. Has anyone else had a problem like this that could give me some advice as to what to do. Many thanks, Max
