S60 d4 vea cold start problem.

rking314 · Nov 8th, 2018, 18:56

Hi All.

When starting my 2014 S60 D4 from cold it feels like it's only running on 3 cylinders.
It doesn't rev freely and is very lumpy.
If I attempt to drive away the car jerks/misses alot.
After a minute or so of driving once the car has warmed slightly it runs fine.
If I let the car warm up for 3 or 4 mins before driving off its fine.
I'm thinking a dodgy glow plug?
Anyone else recognise this problem?
Thanks

It sounds like a dodgy glow plug but rather than guess, just test them.
