    Still Got Issues - 300TDi

    Still Got Issues - 300TDi

    better checking that your turbo is ok first before you start changing fuel pumps.white smoke from rear and not revving sounds to me as if your turbo is f###ed. i have sorted a few with the same problems and the turbo was seized.

    2000 TD5 not starting!!!!!!

    check the fuel filter and filter head it is in the rear off side wheel arch. the filter usually gets damp and corrodes and the filter head corrodes and goes porous then the pump starts squealing as it try's to purge the air out of the system.
