Hi,New to this forum, so thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
2012, CDTI, 2.2 (ceverolet engine).
Turn key to start engine, engine turns over a number of times but refuses to start. Sometimes starts on first attempt, but most times takes 4, 5, 6 attempts. Once started runs perfect. No warning lights on the dash and no fault codes found in the memory. Its been doing it for over a month but feels to be getting worse. Took it into a garage for its annual service and mentioned the starting issue. Service completed and still behaves the same. Garage suggested, either, Glow Plugs, EGR or common fuel rail/sensor. Ive checked the glow plugs, wiring and relay....all ok. Removed and cleaned EGR, no issues discovered. Fuel rail sensor on order, but ive disconnected it (to see if it would make a difference to starting), no difference to the starting, but the engine then runs like poo.
Someone mentioned the camsahft position sensor could be on its way out, so disconnected that and again no difference to the starting and it had no effect on the running of the engine.............so i'm now thinking its the cam position sensor (one now on order).
Someone has now mentioned an immobiliser issue.........so i'm now getting a bit frustrated.
Has anyone experienced similar?
Has anyone got any suggestions?
Much appreciated,
Ash
