The problems seems to be that the glow plugs are not activating at least the light on the dash is not coming on. So are the glow plugs activated on every cold start? Are they temperature dependent i.e. are they only activated if the air temp is below xx deg? OR what? cold start device is working fine as i have a VERY fast idle until it warms up - but the the idle is very fast normally i suspect the fuel mixture has been played with for extra performance. thanks in anticipation __________________ David Past - 360 GLT - 745TI - 398K miles gone to Ireland 945 SE TD 230K AWESOME CAR - 855 2.3 20V GLT V70 Classic 2.4 20V sold on VoS FB page in a few hours Present - C70 2.4 SE GearTronic - V70R AWD Prins II LPG 2.5 GearTronic Last edited by DLM48; Mar 2nd, 2008 at 12:58.
