V50 Engine 2.0D : - 2.0D hard to start

kenzoo · Oct 7th, 2018, 12:38

Hey guys!

recently my v50 has been hard to start.
Hot / Coldstart does not matter.
It crancs way longer than it should, sometimes I have to re-start, as it fails to start at first try.

Garage have swapped DPF and filled Additive this summer.
They also serviced the car.

I used Autocom to read codes but nothing shows .

I also took the Y-shaped throttlebody located infront of the Engine as they are known to fail, but both flaps works great, and dont stick or what so ever.

Checked the fuel line ner the fuelfilter for air, and yes there is some airbubbles now and then. But don't think thais has something to do with the startissue.

Just annoyed that i dont get faultcodes

Double flaps weren't prone for jamming only single one

Sounds to me your fuel filter housing drawing air ,you can by pass housing and see if that helps my guess that's your problem

Regards

Garage swapped the Filterhouosing + filter, problem still there, Mechanic diagnosed that the starter did not spin as it should.

So the fault is starter, and thats why I'm not getting faultcodes.
