MrRussell2U Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Need some help here, Just bought the car mentioned above and occasionally when starting, the engine goes rough for a few seconds and does one of 2 things: 1:struggles to start and just conks out. 2:struggles a bit and then idles fine. This is my first diesel and have yet to get it serviced. Thats the first on my list to do. Am i thinking it could be the glow plugs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a friend with a similar problem and he took the EGR valve off and gave it a good clean. Thats about all I know I'm afraid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
