57 Plate Cold Starting

Featured Replies

I have a 57 plate 1.9tdi Octavia with approx 190,000 miles and over the last 12 months or so it has had the following:

New Alternator

Reconditioned Starter Motor

New Battery

New Glow Plugs

However it still hates starting on cold mornings. On Saturday it took 4 attempts before it started and this morning it wouldn't start until I jump started it from a donor car.

Any one have any idea what else I could look at before having to spend loads of money thru a garage?

Injector seals leaking
