Golf Mk5 TDI - BKD - Cold Start Issue
« on: November 11, 2016, 03:01:00 pm »
Hi All,
First of all, thank you for running such a great forum, I've lurked around here a little while and its a shame that my first post needs to be asking for help! but here goes.

I've currently got an early 2004 Mk5 GT TDI, the 2.0 BKD block, it's always been a pain to start in the cold but lately it just seems to want to get worse!

I've taken a short video and uploaded it to youtube as i'm no mechanic, only a very amateur enthusiast! Please dont hate me for the rather terrible voice over and crappy iphone quality video!

I've also had the battery tested by my local garage as this was my first though, and they provided me with a print out of how it's doing, all gibberish to me but hopefully you guys can make some sense of it!

Any help would be really appreciated as with winter setting in, I want to get this sorted!
