Hot start, doesn’t always start.

Featured Replies

Hello,

Long-ish standing problem, started summer last year out of the blue.

When the engines warm, not always at full temp but far worse at full temp. It’ll start and immediately die, flashing the glow plug light.

Since then, it’s had a cambelt/waterpump (and a pulley replaced, unsure which)

Multiple oil services

Crankshaft sensor replaced

Camshaft sensor replaced

Still getting the fault, although I changed the crankshaft sensor today, and it is far better but still occasionally doing it.

I’ve added the fault code on as an attachment.

Before I go throw another belt change on, anyone else any idea?

Drives absolutely perfect, still getting 50mpg+ on long journeys with a heavy boot load. No performance issues or odd sounds.

Bar the starting, the car is behaving perfectly.

Thanks!
