Mk4 hot start issue

Hello all!

 

I have a 2008 mondeo with 1.8 Tdci. First my EGR gave fault codes and then the car started to refuse igniting when motor was hot after few weeks.

 

I blanked the EGR, and the problem got little better (ignites better as the air is purer?), but still refuses to ignite properly. The engine kind of ignites but then stalls. I had the plugs replaced 2 years ago. Obd shows that rpm is pretty much same hot or cold as is fuel rail pressure when trying to ignite.

 

Ignites like a charm every morning and after work, but I cannot go to shop, as the car won't start. The car will also start nicely when towed (its manual). Car also runs fine when hot, once I get it running.

 

So any ideas? Anyone had same problems? Is it the EGR? Injectors (car has VDO injectors)? Fuel pump?

 

Thanks for your help!
