my wifes TD4 has suddenly started playing up, once earlier today it wouldnt start, then eventually it did, then again later when trying to go to fetch the kids, she gave up and used my van. when i came home it started? but then immediately wouldnt start when i tried again?
i stuck 10l of diesel in as it was approaching the red mark, and still nothing.
under the bonnet i found nothing visually wrong, except a small rubber tube, with an inline filter on the end,flapping about at the rear of the engine, had a look around and the only 'end' i could find that it would fit on was a steel pipe that came up the rear of the engine on the drivers side and near the top it bends over and points back down and was open ended, so i reattached the rubber tube, but again it wouldnt start?
after about 5 or 6 attempts it started.
i have absolutely no idea what s going on.
any suggestions will be appreciated, im guessing it maybe electrical? if so, what/where to look
