Does anyone know if this is possible? I've looked around on the forum and there's a couple of threads but none have given a definitive answer.

This ended up being a damaged wire for the camshaft position sensor - strange that it didn't give any codes.

Thanks for your response. 1) 8 months, the issue has only popped up in the last month or so. 2) Only later in the day. It cold starts fine. 3) No smoke at all. 4) The cranking speed seems fine as far as I can tell. The heater plugs were replaced 10000 miles/2 years ago. Would the air in the system require some kind of bleeding to be carried out? Thanks

It did, and there are none. Fuel filter was due and I was hoping it'd be 2 birds with 1 stone. Sorry, just got into the habit of calling it that.

Hi, my 1.4tdi 80bhp has recently started struggling to start, sometimes it will crank over and over and only gets going when pressing on the accelerator. I have to hold the revs high for a few seconds otherwise it will cut out again. Sometimes I can switch the ignition on and off a few times and then it'll start. Other times it'll start fine. I've just had the MOT & Service and I asked for the fuel filter to be changed as well in hopes this would rectify the problem - but it's made no difference.

Thanks. I'm not sure the Climatronic system on the 5J is quite the same as the Passat, as a lot of those options didn't work. I did however manage to pull code 4FA which relates to recirc flap motor and peform a reset/calibration which cleared the code. All working as normal now.

Hello, I've recently diagnosed and replaced a failed blower fan on my 2008 Fabia 3 with Climatronic, but no air seems to be coming out of any vents unless it's set to Auto (where I assume all vents are open?). Having ECON on or off makes no difference. I can hear the flaps moving when I select the different vent options, but none of them seem to direct the flow of air correctly. I've also got the flashing climatronic unit when the ignition is on which I assume means low pressure in the AC? I don't currently have access to VCDS to pull any codes. TIA
