Rather, it won't play on the app but does on the website.
Strange.

Is there any leakage around the injectors?

Daz Newell · Dec 4th, 2016, 17:55

No leaks....I did have a quieter noise on start up but went after 2-5 minutes.
I travelled 30 miles and all seemed fine....didn't use for 3 hours started it and it cut out on tick over.....Two hours later had to get jump leads on as battery was dead which was strange as it's only 2 years old and a good battery....anyhow got it going but there was the noise as usual on start up but it didn't go it just got like it is.....
A friend of mine who works at a garage said a few weeks ago that the intermittent noise could be a sticky lifter...and now he says it sounds like it's collapsed....could this be the case or could it be something more substantial.
Cheers for the help guys

Hi Daz
LOOK at the HP pump is on the right as you are looking in to the engine bay
make shore all of the cables are plugged in, as I had that noise and no power on my D5 and it was a cable that had came unplugged from around there,

Not only was there no power(battery) there's a big lack of horsepower as well.
The battery/electric problem seems ok now as it started after being stood for 2 days...the horrible noise is still there

davebb · Dec 4th, 2016, 19:10

Yes that is what I meant big lack of horsepower, right side of the engine connector on or near Hi pressure fuel pump,

Hope you're right but don't think am that lucky....could you be more specific to location of this please...is it a vacuum pipe plug ......electric plug

davebb · Dec 4th, 2016, 22:03

Yes it is a electric plug
I Can Not remember what one it was, but I think it was on the high pressure fuel pump, it was about 3 years ago,
