2.0GTD 140 hot start issues.
Posted: Wed Dec 11, 2024 10:07 am
Guys, looking for some help. This issue doesn’t affect the car when cold, and usually will start when hot if you don’t touch the throttle but sometimes even that makes no difference.
It will crank and not start, then after maybe 8 or 10 tries it’ll go. If you give it throttle it sounds like a bag of spanners, without the throttle that noise doesn’t happen.
Internet suggestions are temp sensor issues?? (Which one?)
Battery issues and a specific revs not being attained during the cranking phase.
Incidentally there is one sensor feedback I’m seeing on scanning it there’s a value of -6 degrees which is obviously BS. The screenshot for that is below.
