mk5 gt tdi 170 start up :-/
« on: January 05, 2014, 09:39:05 am »
Ok so I go to start my golf after arriving at my gfs 4 hours before. It starts as normal then boom it sounds like it drops to 3 cylinders and sounds rough! Turns it off waits 5 minutes and tries again sounded a bit dodgey but running on 4 gives it a good old rev to f*ck off the black smoke and off she went again as normal..... any ideas?

Could be a number of things, i would suggest in the first instance getting the car scanned. If you don't have access to VCDS find a friendly forum member nearby who does http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,120.0.html
