themetcalfs Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Just purchased a Y Reg MK3 TDDI estate which hesitates under acceleration , also when you accelerate its very noisey then it will hesitate and the engine will quiet down, its not as loud as diesel knock but rattles , is this the beginning of injector failure? there is a fair bit of diesel sitting in the pots on injector 2 and 3, Also ive changed the fuel filter which made no difference, it will start fine but if you leave it for more than a day its a real pig to start Any help would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mintalkin Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 if there is diesel around the injectors then there must be a leaking union or the seals have gone,it will be a pig to start due to air entering the system and the diesel will syphon back.
