Starting issues, cranks no start?
« on: March 11, 2021, 09:35:29 am »
Hi guys wondering if you could help me! So my golf turns over and does not start, have replaced coil packs, high pressure fuel pump, fuel rail pressure sensor replaced and camshaft sensor replaced still no start? When turning the engine it emits white smoke from the exhaust and even when applying easy start it does not take it in its like it spits it back out? Please help me im so confused! Thanks

When did you last check your cam follower? Hopefully thats not broken and wrecked your fuel pump/cam... As above codes would be best.

Checked all the fuses?

Does it make the priming noise when the drivers door is opened?

Are you sure the plugs are sparking and are you sure there's fuel getting to the plugs from the injectors?

Smoke from the exhaust I would be concentrating on, it has to be oil from the engine or turbo, or coolant.....

Basics, how are the levels?

I have checked the fuses under the bonnet and on driver side door all seems to be fine! Fuel pump has been checked and is working fine?
