well got my 2 slow last night everything was fine til this morning. i went to start it and it took age sto fire but once fired it was fine and will run perfectly. any ideas?
-
Any fault codes?
When was it last serviced? Plugs need replacing?
-
it had a recent service. might do the plugs anyway though. any other ideas? theres no managemnet light on
-
I may just be one of those things, i have had it before then it never does it again, if it is like it all the time then i would start to worry but will probabley be something simple.
Also you don't alwayts get a light with a fault code.

The main coil pack could be faulty? leads? sensors? :undecided:
Really need to scan it before spending any money on it :wink:

ok thanks guys. ive got a fault reader at work so will plug it in and see. problem is when its warm its fine.
-
Does it do it all the time or is it just this once? Not all readers will read vag either, what is it you have at work?
-
bosch i believe it read bmw etc for sure. ive only had it a day and that was the first time i started it from cold
-
Get it connected up anyway i found out my heated mirrors don't work thanks to vag com, but i would see what its like tomorrow, where are you based?

I had a similer problem with my 2.slow. Struggled to start everynow and again. Turned out it was a temprature sensor. Only difference is that the engine light was on.

mine ran alot better after changing the sparks but ive got a problem with my starter motor now, could be the start of that for you aswel? previous owner to me has obviously been riding the clutch :angry:
