V70 D5 Non Starter

Basic info

2003 V70 D5 163bhp

My car will not start at all no matter how long its been cranked, I've have 1 injector replaced and fuel filter at xmas which rectified the problem.

Since then the starting issue (worse when upto temperature) has spiralled out of control to the stage I am at now where it just won't start.

Rear electric tank pump functions correctly, however there is no pressure at the rail during cranking.

Anyone got any advice?

Many Thanks

You mention the electric pump is ok but I would still try removing the short rubber pipe feeding the high pressure injection pump then switch on the ignition and see if fuel is being delivered , you can do this test in about five minutes and it then rules out a blockage , it comes out as a trickle on mine but still starts first time . You can replace the crimped clip with a jubiliee clip but I have not replaced mine yet and its not leaking at all . You also mention no pressure at the rail , what fault codes are you getting ? Failure of the high pressure injection pump is unusual on a Euro 3 D5 engine .
