Skoda Fabia 1.9 tdi VRS.

 

Driving along and car lost all power, and died. Tried to start it again and it would turn over but not start. So left it where it was, next day I came to it, it coughed and spluttered and then started for a couple of seconds and died again..

 

I’m thinking it could be a fuel issue i.e. fuel pump?

 

Any ideas? Thanks!

 

fuel filter?

thats my guess but wondered what other people said, going to tow it to a garage tonight 

Can you hear the fuel pump working ?

Is there definitely fuel in the tank? If so, any chance it's been mis-fuelled with petrol?

 

If neither of those, I'd say something like crank sensor.

my guess was the fuel pump sorry, when i turn my key its usually like a liquid trickling sound, it doesnt really do that anymore.
