Hi all can anyone help ? It’s a 2.0 tdci euro 5 163 engine . I recently changed fuel filter and a new dpf for some reason it cranks a load more times before it starts bled fuel lines cracked each injector feed . Used to start on 1 crank, could it be glow plugs or a fuel pump I’m stumped

    Welcome to the forum. 👍

    If it started OK BEFORE you changed the fuel filter, then maybe you've placed the gasket in the wrong place; it should be under the lip of the filter and NOT on top of it - apparently an easy mistake to make.
