intermittent starting problem when engine is warm
After 3 or 4 short journeys the engine won't crank up,sometimes you get a couple of splutters other times when you turn the key it's just dead,leave the car for a couple of hours and it fires up,told i needed a new battery but it hasn't solved the problem,i believe this is happening to other VW TDI V6 engines also,anybody got any answers,it's driving me mad.

Hi,
Can you get the ODBII port scanned to see if there are any error codes logged which may help to point out the problem?

no error codes showing,told it could be the ECT and that they don't always show an error code,or the solenoid needs to be cleaned brushes etc,possibly new starter motor
thanks Bill
